"i hope the leaving is joyful, & never to return"

So a lady's son died and that's unfortunate. The grief-psychosis has manifested in an attempt to "ban bloodstains". Like on cartoon Halloween T- shirts.
Sigh. My comments keep coming out too mean and I don't want to upset anyone here so I will just shut up and post it. Read the "pearl clutching" comments too, they're a fucking hoot. So offense, much outrage! Over an image women see in our fucking underwear every month. A substance every human body is full of. What does she do with her maxipads, run to the media and demand they be banned?
All she's doing with this publicity is increasing sales. I'm buying one.

Personally I am outraged that we are all still even using the internet, what with all those Chinese nerds keeling over after those week-long gaming marathons in internet cafes and such. Very insensitive of us.

On a serious note, who names their kid Champion?

Tasteless, Disgraceful, Inhuman, Insensitive WTF? Its a tee shirt with a blood stain and a logo, what is offensive about it? Do they glorify stabbings or shootings in any way? I dont think so. I would never have seen them in such a light had it not been mentioned. Its humour, simple as.

I like the name and he was lovely. I just think indulging this kind of silliness over a ban is well, silly.
Blood is a powerful symbol in society and it's everywhere, figuratively and literally. It's like trying to ban air because your kid suffocated. At some point one has to come back to earth and be realistic.
Notice she's not trying to ban fucking knives. Those are useful and necessary. So the irrational grief focuses on something irrelevant like a cartoon bloodstain. How long must society indulge grief-psychosis?
I mean it happens to everybody, I still have grief-psychosis for my mom, but I keep that shit to myself, not use it for an excuse to run the world and other people's lives. I don't mean to focus on just this one lady, every time somebody loses a loved one, it's just a free-pass to be irrational in public and the media eats it up.
I probably just have pms.

Oh I just realized what she probably thinks when she sees her maxipad. She probably thinks of her own blood that ran through the veins of her beautiful boy, splattered on the pavement, and gone.
Oh shit now I made myself sad.
I definitely have pms.

That woman is fucking insane and eBay is insane for giving in. People wearing such a shirt, has no affect on her whatsoever as long as she doesn't have to see it in real life. People like that should be banished from society, not coddled.

I doubt this article will do anything to reduce knife crime.
I fully expect T-Shirt sales to INCREASE after this article.
Amazon and friends aren't stupid.
Just look up Novichock gin maker.

Still very sad story

*Such offense, much outrage.
Also, who has the time on their hands to get offended by a T-shirt? How did she even come across it in the first place? There's a bunch of important questions that are being ignored here.

If that turns out to be true, it would be more navel-gazey than the most egotistical indie film directors. Also, thanks for making me burst into laughter at the idea of a kid getting stabbed and transforming into a bloodstained maxi pad.

She's a mom who loves her boy. I can be annoyed by how her grief manifests, but I can't laugh at it.
Maybe next week.

Just like my mom loves me (or so I'm told). I have no sympathy for parents who say that they love their children as a justification for stupid shit. And I don't think I'll ever get there.

Very sad story. But this sort of reminds me of the whole Tide Pod fiasco. Yes, let's ban those pods because people decide to eat them....

I mean come on. People will get offended by anything and everything these days. Hopefully she gets a grip and channels her grief into more constructive things...like knitting.

Ouch.
Are you gonna buy one? I like the black ones.
Did dailymail include a link for purchase in the article? That is just the sort of thing they would do.

Nah, I'm going to keep my money and wait for a better design. The blood on that T-shirt looks bland.

Speaking about outraged parents... Is there any updates about that whole SS media and Facebook scandal thing after that girl CTB with SN? I haven't seen anyone here mentioning it for a while. Also, if this post is in any way innapropriate, please report it so it gets hidden/deleted.
