I just ran across this a few minutes ago. What do you think? Should they have been pulled? Or do you think it's no big deal cause it's just a t-shirt.

Yes, they are right to pull them. It's distasteful and I wouldn't want to see someone wearing that.

Just because I feel rape shouldn't be something to joke around with, I think they should be pulled, but that's my opinion.

I don't get the point in the "keep calm" merchandise.

Should be pulled.
The more 'common' it is to talk about abuse and rape, the more it will happen.
Takes away the 'shame'.

Quoting A❤T=P&W:"   seriously?"

Yeah, I'd have to find the documentary I watched, but I'm pretty sure that some pedophile in Australia wrote a book about how to molest children and Amazon is the only one that sells it...

While it's disgusting, they have the right to sell whatever they want.

It's in bad taste.

Do I think it should be pulled because it's in bad taste? No.

But I do think it should be pulled because of the obvious reason. If a girl gets raped while wearing that shirt, does that count as consent? She knowingly wore something like that. It's reaching, but I'm sure it has some sort of valid standing.

The shirt reminds me of the song Rape Me by Nirvana.

But in all seriousness, rape is not something to toy around with. The shirts should definitely be pulled.

You have a really, really good point. There is a lot of victim blaming in the courts and this would just make it easier.

Defense always goes after the victim, you know? I can see how jurors would be like, well you're the dumb bitch who wore a rape me shirt.
