If I were to have seen this, I think my response would be sad rather than offended. It is a tragic statement that the future leaders of our country would think this was 1-funny 2-acceptable social behavior and 3-something worthy of paying actual time and money to print on t-shirts that will some day end up in a goodwill bin.
I think it's less about banning speech as much as wishing so much better of them. That you CAN make a piggish statement like this doesn't mean you should, or especially that they apparently didn't know they were doing something embarrassing for themselves. A girl who would be personally hurt by this needs to grow a backbone and never EVER date one of these guys. I'd probably do my best to get the other sororities on campus to show their appreciation for the t-shirts by not participating in any events with them for about a year or so. Or forever. Say it if you want, but understand there are consequences to your behavior.
