Here's a shocker: the store beloved by deep-pocketed hipsters stopped selling an "I Support Same Sex Marriage" tee shirt and is actually run by a conservative Republican, says New York magazine's blog, The Cut.So they'll sell pro-Obama tee shirts and pro-vegetarian tee shirts, but not pro-civil rights tee shirts? WTF!Apparently Urban Outfitters pulled the printed tee from shelves in California, where the controversy over Prop 8 is raging. The company blamed "too much bad press." Heh. Too much bad press from who? Bigots, you mean?Take part and consider buying your "I Support Gay Marriage" tee straight from Support Shirts at supportshirts.net.Urban Outfitters delivered quite the slap in the face to the small company, which states on its web site:
Support Shirts is a small company that believes strongly in a sense of community. They are all about pushing and breaking boundaries, non-compete attitudes, and most importantly, support... of our communities, the arts, friends, families, and each other.Wow, sounds like they're the shit -- and Urban Outfitters could learn a thing or two from them.
