One Che thread wasn't enough? Furthermore people who make youtube videos like that and stop people in the street to harass them are far more annoying than some one wearing a tee-shirt. |

Personally I find the T-shirts more annoying. The video was good IMHO.

Great vid!
That issue or trend is amusing as hell. Most of the peeps wearing these shirts have no clue as to what Che was actually like or what he actually did. |

Seriously...
To say nothing of the fact that I haven't seen a Che shirt since around 'Jagged Little Pill'.
If you want to go after offensive shirts, go after Ed Hardy. |

dude love I'm glad that you're really sticking it to all the French teachers of English here in Korea who wear Che shirts.
If not for your bold efforts, Korean children would be singing The Internationale instead of Go Away, Big Green Monster. |

I think confronting ignorance is fantastic. I saw a hippy couple dress their kids in Che product once in San Francisco. That was reprehensible. |

Wow, you're sounding pretty ugly for someone from the 'land of the free.' What's it to you what people do? |

"I think confronting ignorance is fantastic."
-What's ugly about that and how would you know where the poster's from?
"What's it to you what people do?"-
-Presumably nothing but the poster's entitled to his or her opinion, just like people are allowed to ask others why they think it's ok to wear a t-shirt of a racist, homophobic, anti-Semitic, champagne socialist college drop-out who killed thousands of people, executed w/o trial and surrendered with a fully loaded weapon and begged for his life and never fought in a military victory. And it's not harrassment until one party asks the other to stop the behaviour. |

Then let's add Ghandi and Nelson Mandella to the debate. Most people are completely unaware of their politics. They would be rejected as icons if people knew. |

Is the main charge against Che that he killed a few thousand people, and beyond that he made racist/homophobic/anti-Semitic comments?
Guess we better make some alterations to Mt. Rushmore and tear down a few Presidential Libraries. |

I have to throw my 2 won in. Personally I don't care freedom of speech. Today's dictator was yesterday's freedom fighter. So if you want to support a dictator it's your right. Che was not he only freedom fighter turned dictator though. Fidel Castro, Kim il sung, Hugo Chavez just to name a few so if you like freedom of speech. There are some more faces you can wear on a t-shirt. I just find it interesting that most people who fight to free their people want to enslave them under their thumbs. Oh well that's my 2 won worth. |

So one day someone is wearing a che t shirt, the next the secret police are banging down our doors to take us to the 'special' showers?
I don't understand your point. |
