Is this singlet RACIST

[nero_bolt]

Looks like yet another storm in a  tea cup from the easily offended no sense of humour and we hate Australia mob

This Singlet and T-shirt has been available for a number of years on the web, on eBay and in many shops around the country until some super sensitive poonce from Canberra on an end of season  footy trip to Cairns with his team  decided to get himself all offended and post a pic etc and then the usual easily we hate Australia types all jumped on it  (seems some ACT AFL players are over sensitive)

So is this RACIST or simply a singlet that’s says you are proud to be Australian and  if you don’t like it here leave.

Is this yet another storm in a tea cup from the easily offended humourless types 

An original Tweet by George Craig from Canberra  posting a photo of the singlet with the caption “@woolworths cairns, selling racist singlets for everyday low prices! #racist” was shared by Greens MP Adam Bandt on his Facebook page.

I'd like to know who supposedly defended or professed to "love" the F Tony Abbott tee shirts.

I don't recall a single poster defending them and yet here we have posters claiming the mysterious left embraced it.

If you don't love your country, no matter where you live, you should leave. Why spend your life being unhappy with where you live? 

The T-shirt doesn't say, if you are not Australian, Leave. That might be a "tad" offensive to many. 😉

Unless of course you are living in Palestine... well I'm sure alot of people would leave Gaza if they could actually GET out of the place...

I know, I'm off topic saying that, and probably out of line too...  I'm sure the mods'll edit out what they dont like... 

Anyway I'm not one bit offended by that T Shirt.  I personally wouldn't wear it, but hey I dont see anything wrong with anybody else wearing it.  And I'm so sick and tired of Aussies being labelled as so racist all the time.  It's simply not true imo.  And when are people going to realize (sorry I'm going on a rant now) that racism can actually be a good thing, a very important thing if and only when it is your own race you are nurturing and not vilifying other races, therefore allowing everybody the the basic human right to self determination. And if I've offended anybody, I truly am sorry but I also say I think you need to harden up a little, imagine how "offended" people in Iraq would be after witnessing a public execution...

It's a T Shirt fgs, wear it with pride if you have one, dont buy one if you dont like it, simple really.

I haven't heard that name Woolworths in many years until I came here, they "were" big in the states too. Are they big in Australia?? Sounds like they are.

 Ask the greens and the easily offended as most people dont have a problem at all with this T-shirt

Maybe you will get an answer from the offended who are posting on here.... 🙂 

THE self-appointed tolerance tsars of Australia are having such a hard time proving Australia is a land of bigots they are now jumping at shadows.

They see racism where most people see patriotism.

It's just an abuse of the Aussie flag to use it to promote intolerance.

Yeah...I'm still not getting it.

Intolerance towards who? People who don't like it there? I wouldn't worry about offending them...then. 🙂

I'd tell "them" the same thing here.

Wanting those who don't love Australia to leave, is intolerance?   How? Why would they want to be here?  bty the Au flag isn't a "race" either   

[goldenjet16]

Really????? That's a stretch IMO.... How do you read that much into that shirt?
