Interesting article, however, up until the mention of the t-shirts, I saw absolutely no basis of complaint. Mr. Hof was correct in saying it's a
"supply a demand" issue. Business is business! The gorilla billboard ... come on! Recall the Clint Eastwood movie "Deadpool" when Clint handed a carton of camels to a huge, muscular black man, then referred to him as a gorilla to his adversary? Now, who had issues with that ... no one, I can assure you. Some women want to be taken by the largest, most muscular, threatening black man they can find because it raises their hormone levels ... a huge gorilla exemplfies that huge black man. I'm pretty sure no offense was meant. This type of complaining is often based simply upon
who's being gored by the ox.
Now, the t-shirts, based on
how that N-word was spelled on the t-shirt, was offensive. Was it spelled ending in "er" or ending in "a" ... because the N word ending in "a" falls under the Freedom Of Speech, the "er" word does not. But, the article did not clarify that point. Regardless of how it was spelled, it's still offensive to most people, as those reading the t-shirt know what its intent is.
