I understand why they were asked to leave.
there was a problem a week or two before with people with SIMILAR shirts.. so unfortunately that tension probably had a lot to do with the request to leave ... take for example the confederate flag (on a side note im completely opposed to racism i think it is the most gay absurd thought process a person could have.. with that said) take that flag.. stick it on a T-shirt.. in and of itself its NOT a problem... BUT factor in an area known for white supremacist type hate crimes.... now you have a situation.. this flag could EASILY be associated with that crowd.. now factor in a public place like the mall that these hate crimes are occurring in.. now you have the recipe for exactly what happened to that man and his dad.. in and of itself the shirt means NOTHING.. but due to the tension of pro war and anti war people the shirt creates conflict, and discord ... something not good in a business atmosphere ... and I think that is really all that happened.
BTW.. im not angry.. and i take all this debating in stride... its soley discusion to me..
just want you all to no im NOT trying to belittle anyone.. i just enjoy debating issues..
