Did you read The Dallas Morning News report today about how Town East Mall security seized some T-shirts from a kiosk vendor yesterday because members of the Pleasant Grove Chamber of Commerce – who have been trying to upgrade the community’s violent image – found them objectionable?
“Welcome to Pleasant Grove,” the shirts read – below a silkscreen image of a man tossing a body into the trunk of an old Buick.
What ever happened to free speech? Sounds like the Mall Nazis were out in full force!
The Mall’s community relations director, Debbie Screws, was quoted as saying, “They’ve all been confiscated.”
Looks to me like the kiosk owner (sorry, I can’t resist this one) has been screwed!
I definitely see a law suit coming, don’t you?
I’m going to the Mall today or tomorrow to look for objectionable T-shirts and then will complain to Mall officials. In fact, we should all do it!
Then let’s return and report!
