Cafe Press has apparently changed its mind ...

Psalm 109:8 update

This morning we made the decision to remove all Psalms 109:8 designs from CafePress.

1. Too little too late, IMO.

2. My shop will remain closed.
I'll go elsewhere, they aren't the only one in town.

I have very low tolerance for the promotion of hate or those who enable it. This site should have been shut down immediately. And why isn't the Secret Service calling on Cafe Press and the shop owner?

11. Maybe they have been, and that accounts for the latest change
of policy. Sure doesn't sound voluntary.

3. They were for it before they were against it before they were
for it before they were against it? Too much flip-flopping. It's obvious they're only in it for the money and don't have much of a social conscience.

5. I just ordered $100+ of merchandise from Razzle...
stuff I've been wanting for awhile, but DU's action moved ME to act.

Right On Skinner!

Smackdab in the ol' pocketbook, as they say... :D

17. No; I actually ordered two t-shirts and a mug....
one with my old unit insignia (3/2 ACR), and two that had the crossed-cannons of the field artillery, and the logo "United States Army Field Artillery."

19. Ah, the Fulda Gap; you guys had the Northern border, we had the southern...
what years were you there? Or were you with the 11th Cav in Vietnam?

6. After that lame-ass justification earlier?
It doesn't sound right to me.

20. You Mean When The Far-Reich
Rises up with the help of Glenn Becky moaning and bitching about their freedoms being taking away?

I can see it happening.

8. They have a new one:
All the remaining Psalm 109:8 items at Cafe Press are being replaced with

Isaiah 22:19 items

"I will (A)depose you from your office, And I will pull you down from your station."

Ugh.

9. Ugh. Great. It's the worst kind of whack-a-mole game with these
people.

10. It was pretty predictable . . . given the ample ammunition
in the Bible.

It will be interesting to see who blinks first (or tires of the game).

12. Cafepress had to debate this?

I mean, honestly, fuck them.

Who runs that site?

13. They just wanted to see how it would effect their bottom line
They pulled the merch only when they discovered they were losing money because of having it. Simple as that.

23. They are never going to see another penny from me. One year I actually bought Christmas presents
from them, along with ordering several bumperstickers.

I am done with them.
