I had just paid for my Cafepress account so I didn't want to close it down, so instead

[grace0418]

I took all my merchandise off and posted a sticker and a t-shirt that said this:



I added that I wouldn't be selling any other items until Cafepress stopped advocating violence against the President. When Cafepress announced that they would remove the offensive merchandise, I changed my caption.

Wouldn't you know it, I got a couple of sales already!

1. THAT'S telling them!

2. Thanks CP! In the tags I wrote things like "psalm" and "pray for Obama" so the fools

searching for the other stuff would come across my sticker. I hope it made at least one of them use that atrophied brain of theirs.

[Systematic Chaos]

4. Scratch this

Finally found it buried down the list with a search for "psalm".

I hope more people find it though!

[grace0418]

28. Maybe it's just taking time since I just did it yesterday.

Once I get a few hits it should rise.

[Systematic Chaos]

3. Why didn't you post a link to it?

I did a search there for "No real Christian" and I get some dipshit thing that says "If evolution were real, why do moms only have two hands?"

:crazy:

[grace0418]

6. I don't think I'm supposed to hawk stuff on DU.

But my store is cafepress.com/geelove if you're curious. Not that I'm asking you to buy anything. ;)

[Systematic Chaos]

7. Do it in the DU Marketplace.

We do have one, you know. :D

[grace0418]

10. Honestly, I didn't know.

Or I don't know where it is. :blush:

[dixiegrrrrl]

5. Oh, I saw that !!!

I e-mailed objecting to the Psalm stuff, then again thanking them for changing their minds
( twice, but they did change it at last) and went to their site, saw your sign.

Good on you.

[grace0418]

9. Thanks dixiegrrrl! Cool that you saw it. Someone else on DU has a photo of their

bumper as their sig line, and on their bumper is a sticker I designed! I always think that's cool when I see it. When I have time I will update my store.

8. Best reaction I've seen yet

15. How kind, valrelse!

Thank you! :hi:

[Kali]

11. excellent!

:thumbsup:

[grace0418]

14. Thanks Kali!

:hi:

[undeterred]

12. They have stopped it again as of today...

I'm glad they read their emails.

[grace0418]

13. Yes, I took the comment off, but left the sticker and t-shirt.

I'm glad cafepress decided to do the right thing, but it's sad that it took so much prompting for them to do it.

[dhpgetsit]

16. Thank you!

You said it best!

[grace0418]

22. Thank you!

:)

[Born_A_Truman]

17. I hope you keep selling that anyway!

Please!

[grace0418]

23. I think I will. The fundie-rightwing-nutjobs won't go away even though they've been

rightfully rebuked. Thanks! :hi:

[EFerrari]

18. Good job, grace!

:yourock:

[grace0418]

24. Aw, thanks!

You rock yourself!

[SeattleGirl]

19. I love it, grace!

That's a great response to the Psalm 109er's!

[grace0418]

25. Thanks SG!

I had to respond. It makes me crazy. :mad:

[Bryn]

20. Very Nice!

Bookmarked!

[grace0418]

26. Thanks Bryn!

I'm honored.

[Cybergata]

21. Bravo! n/t

[grace0418]

27. You're too kind.

Thank you Cybergata!

[billyoc]

29. Now THAT'S a seller.

:hi:

[grace0418]

37. Why thank you.

We'll see if it sells. I hope some folks who need to read it do read it.

[gleaner]

30. Thanks for taking action ...

against this crap. Why don't they prosecute the people responsible? There is a law against threatening the president. Why won't anyone enforce it? I have been wondering about this since the so called town hall meetings.

[grace0418]

36. I don't know either. If anyone had done anything akin to this or the behavior at

the town hall meetings when Bushie Boy was in office, they would've been thrown in Gitmo.

[gleaner]

38. You're right ..

I hope someone in the Obama administration realizes how dangerous some of these people can be.

[Catamount]

31. K&R

[grace0418]

35. Thanks for the kick!

And the rec! :hi:

[Not Sure]

32. I may be overstating this a bit,

but that's a flower-in-the-rifle kind of act. I'm impressed both by the act itself and by the presentation of the message. Way to go!

[grace0418]

34. Wow. You really are too kind.

But thank you. :hug:
