Is this shirt offensive or funny?

[celtsfan619]

Super offensive

Agree. I would be high ashamed to wear it even at home.

Really? Why? (to both/either of you)

I'm a pacist.

There are no winners in war.

  How about all the people Hitler didn't get around to exterminating? Would you consider them to be winners in that war? And how does allowing him to continue what he was doing with nobody trying to stop him fit with your pacifism?

A what?

Personally, I could care less what others wear. I don't care if people walk out decked as the head of The KKK. Most anything you do or wear will offend someone. I also want to say that if you choose something really offensive (not that shirt, to me), be sure you're ready for the people who don't like it, those who might harm you. People are easily offended these days  .

Does this shirt really have any connection to the KKK or Hitler? I'm fine with people wearing it, I just would never wear it myself.

Hitler has everything to do with world war 2 genius. Hitler has a lot to do with World War 1 as well. Hitler fought in World War 1 and it was because of The Treaty of Versailles that Hitler came to power. I have no justification for the KKK connection but there is definitely a connection between the shirt and the hitler reference

  I'd say there's something of a connection between Hitler and one of the world wars.

Guys, wearing a shirt in 2013 doesn't impact Hitler... Hitler is dead.

Hitler-supporters in 2013 who may be offended if they see someone wearing this shirt in the streets are just gonna have to deal with it.

See, now this is when I think people just argue to argue... I never said it had anything to do with KKK, I was talking about offensive things, that's why I was talking about what they wear. Someone is always offended, some way more than others. If you like it, wear it.

I don't like it and wouldn't wear it but I personally do not find it offensive. I could see a shirt like that being worn a lot in the States after Olympic events or July 4th celebrations and people having a good laugh over wearing them.

My guess is there are segments of American society that would find it offensive.

I also would never wear that outside of America. It not only helps to support the obnoxious, overbearing, uncouth, "cowboy" stereotype of Americans that pervade this world outside of America, but also rubs other people's noses in the fact we may have defeated their country or killed an ancestor of theirs in a war. Probably not a good idea.

Ha ya, I kinda bought it for July 4th/memorial day cookouts and country music concerts.  I'm not sure how I'd feel about wearing it in the open

  You didn't ask whether the shirt impacted Hitler directly, you asked if it was connected to him at all.

Why go halfway with it?  I've always been fond of this design:

Bah, anyone offended can pound sand.

Wait a minute, I've worked my butt off for the last 30 years of my life to live up to this stereotype, and now I'm not allowed to be proud of it?

I am a proud (obnoxious) American!  Kiss my grits!

I can't tell you how much this made me laugh out loud because I guess I am proud of being every stereotype that a Bostonian is. TP.

yes
   

[guava_wrench]

I like it.

Even Hipster Hitler would like that one.

[ManUp]

Awesome in the US. Offensive in Japan and Germany. Probably annoying everywhere else.

[Kevin OConnor]

War is never okay.

But that doesn't mean we can't joke about everything in life. So yeah, the shirt is funny.

Not as cool as the hat though: http://gentlemint.com/media/images/2012/05/24/92bbc617.jpg.505x650_q85.jpg

Yee haw!!

You definitely need to get a pair of those plastic truck balls to hang off the back of your pick up truck (if you don't already have them) to go along with that shirt. 

[Atzar]

Probably wouldn't wear it myself, but I'd get a chuckle out of it if a buddy showed up rocking this. 

Is it in poor taste?  To some groups, sure; but frankly, most humor is.  Doesn't mean I can't laugh at it.
