Lovely.

PS Now let's have a repeat of the "this is offensive/no it's not" debate. No, let's NOT. As Andrew Jackson said "sometimes one man with courage is a majority."

ETA: what's next? Yellow Star of David? Swastika? I'm absolutely sickened. Sen, there are links at the bottom of the story I linked to that show the shirt and Lambda Chi's response.
The difference between this and what I assume is the debate you are referencing is that there is no way a reasonable person would not find this offensive, given the direct and obvious correlation to be drawn between the phrase and the picture.
