Really? Seeking the splitting hairs… Maybe the lack of protein reduces their sense of humor (it's a joke vegans, don't put me on the grill next to a piece of tofu)

I can't believe that's actually a real thing that happened. That person must be really fun at parties...

Absolutely crazy as far as I am concerned, thank god for all the normal vegans with a sense of humour that I know online and in real life!

HAHAH, is this real?! I refuse to believe people like this exist, and other people 'tolerate' their lack of sense of humor and twisted seriousness about everything in life. Discrimination..? LOL

This sucks. Makes me want to boycott Target. What a tool that woman is.

people these days want to be victims so they can shout and get attention for being victims.

doesn't surprise me that target stopped selling the shirt, big corporations don't want to offend anyone if it could potentially hurt profits.

also political correctness is important, when talking about serious issues such as politics. This shirt is clearly a joke and if you can't see that then your opinions shouldn't be taken seriously.

jesus christ! people these days get offended by everything... why don't they just lock themselves at home and let the rest of us live?I don't eat meat, so I wouldn't wear the shirt but I think it's funny anyway :D

Apparently it only took 12 likes on that post for Target Australia to pull that shirt. I'm kind of tempted to troll them to remove some other completely harmless thing just for the heck of it, if it's that easy. But that would be mean.

lol @ "It's hate speech and against the law"

Hate speech is not against the law. The ACLU once fought for the rights of the KKK to hold a march, of course the ACLU disagrees with the KKK but understands the importance of allowing them to exercise their 1st amendment rights.

I think the real issue here is that Aaron's design implied potatoes are mentally retarded. HOW DO YOU SLEEP AT NIGHT, AARON JAY!!!

To be fair this is in Australia and everything popular media has ever taught me says that Australia is a weird place.
