In Germany some locals have banned Thor Steinar clothing because the
logo makes them uncomfortable. Even New Balance athletic shoes are
suspect because they have a N on them.

Maybe the SPLC can jump in now that the idiots are on a roll. They have
long considered Woody Woodpecker, Celtic crosses, and a variety of other
things to be racist symbols.


Walmart in issuing their ban stated that they didn't want to have
anything in their stores that made anyone feel uncomfortable.
Really? My thoughts immediately went to your examples above.
What about all the clothes made in Vietnam and India by teens
making $2 a day? That makes some people uncomfortable.
What about the cans of tuna that **** off the
folks over dolphins winding up killed? What about the chicken
they sell and PETA? And how about the employees that they
pay minimum wage, that makes some people uncomfortable.
The list is endless.

And as I pointed out in another recent post, it looks like they
don't even have a list. And if they do, they should put it up
on the web so we can all know.
