FWIW - 22 people have voted. Only 1 has voted that the Bite Me shirt is
'maybe' offensive. Nobody has said: "Yes, it is offensive".

Well, hip, hip, horay. The only person that counts is the one in the
store that found it offensive. She's the only one that matters. I
have the exact same shirt (and hat) and I too have worn it in public
and got stares from lots of folks. The shirt may or may not be
offensive, but it is inappropriate in public. Wear it at a clave or
to your local fishing watering hole or fly shop, but it *may* offend
someone in public.

You *may* offend somebody by doing just about anything. There is no
right not to be offended. Walmart has the right to refuse you entrance
to their store for (just about) any reason they want.

I'm offended by old people.....you better stay indoors. ;-)
