Someone told me to take off my Anti-Bush T-shirt.
Edited on Mon May-09-05 02:39 PM by devilgrrl
While I was in New Orleans enjoying the Jazz and Heritage festival, a freeper asshole (a PGA Tournament was also in town) saw my "George W. Bush - Weapon of Mass Destruction" t-shirt. He shouted "Hey! Take that t-shirt off!" I then shouted back "move to Saudi Arabia!"

Was this an appropriate response?

a highly inappropriate suggestion.

8. Did they give any reasons for you to take it off
like "you Gaada suppord the prusudun in taams of wur"

Or did they just grunt.

28. makes me want to join the NRA
I'd like to catch someone putting said note on my windshield . . . for their own safety of course!

They are rat fuck cowards though - it's pretty funny how ashamed they are of standing up for what they think they believe in.

23. I don't think it was, really.
I generally think the "move" retort or attack is pretty weak.

But there's not context to evaluate it. Who it was, where you were, what the shirt said.

I give it a marginal thumbs down. :)

26. You have a point about context
...but I think even freepers get it once it sinks in how close Republicans are to the totalitarian Saudis.

Used in response to a "soft on Castro" attack however, the Saudi response is absolutely perfect.

49. Yeah, I'm a tough broad, all right.
Although the last time I did anything violent was when I was 13. Took a kid who called my little sister a nasty name by the collar and shook the hell out of him. He never did that again!

38. I didn't have a t-shirt
But I did have a "Jesus is a Liberal" bumper sticker on the back of my car. I had been visiting my mom's one Sunday in get this, mostly red, red Republican Hudsonville, Michigan. Anyways I was hungry and I went to the Subway that was down the street from her. I didn't think anything about my bumpersticker (I have another one that says "If going to church makes you a Christian does going to the garage make you a car?") until I was getting ready to leave. I looked back there and lo and behold my JIAL sticker was gone, at first I thought it was because I had driven down the highway to her house, but then I had done the same yesterday and didn't have a problem. So I then deduced that some idiot stole of my trunk!

Idiots! And then my mom tells me to be carefull of what I put on my car since someone could be stupid enough to damage it.

Oh wells, I am going toget another JIAL sticker and see if someone will rally take it off again.

40. Close! You should have prefaced "move to Saudi Arabia!" with a hearty
"Fuck you, asshole". And maybe added a "Why don't you go masturbate a horse like bush* does while you're at it too".

Seriously though, good work!

43. that sucks, but unfortunately even the Big Easy has a freeper infestation
Hopefully you had more positive responses to the shirt. I've gotten hugs from strangers for my "Bush Sucks" t-shirt.

We were there passing out "Make Music - Not War" stickers. For the most part people really appreciated it. There were a few people who said things like "no thanks" or "I support the war". One guy even tore off the "not war" part of the sticker.

We hope you'll return for Jazz Fest next year. Although I'm sure the weather couldnt' possibly be as nice as it was this year.
