That shirt does indeed, go hard.

[–] piyuv@lemmy.world 79 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

You’ll get arrested for wearing this in public but not denying health insurance claim to 900.000 people

[–] Mojave@lemmy.world 86 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

This is too victim complex-y. You can wear tee shirts supporting violence, nobody is going to arrest you.

Hey, Nazis even get protection.

Hey, Nazis even get ~~protection~~ elected.

FTFY

In the US? I don't think this shirt would violate any law or get you arrested. There was that guy with the "I eat ass" bumper sticker that got arrested for profanity but the state attorney dropped it because it probably is protected free speech.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

By "arrested" they actually mean, "have the shit beat out of you by cops"

[–] JudahBenHur@lemm.ee 32 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

guys no cop is going to fuck with you for a t-shirt like this. Ive hung out in the punk scene for decades and people wear clothing with very, very explicit anarchist and anti cop etc language and no cops are stopping people for fuckin t-shirts.

[–] Dupree878@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah. The cops that fuck with you were gonna fuck with you anyway

They'll skip that. They can't actually get you convicted anyways, they'll just get the thugs with badges to beat you for "resisting arrest", then shoot you because "they feared for their life".

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 62 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You can buy these in the hospital gift shop, I’m sure.

[–] IDKWhatUsernametoPutHereLolol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

But how can you afford it when your claim has been denied?

[–] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 16 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

The shirts are only $3949.99 it’s so affordable you can buy six for the price of one ER visit.

I wonder if the shadow noose is intentional.

[–] xorollo@leminal.space 18 points 2 weeks ago (11 children)

I wish the noose wasn't there. It's unrelated to the incident, and it's a method of murder associated with black people, not CEOs. Make it a guillotine or just a normal shadow.

You wot m8, we've been hanging people for millennia

I kinda feel like what they're going for is a "shoot the rope" thing with that shadow.

[–] mosiacmango@lemm.ee 15 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Agreed. It reads as the "shooter" killing a mass murderer whose noose/shadow kills all those it touches.

Associated with black people... and centuries of executions prior that had nothing to do with color.

A noose over a tree I could see being more racial - kkk killings etc - but hanging is more of a "common persons execution" historically

It is a normal shadow for this scene. The light source is a street light directly above the shooter.

[–] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 9 points 2 weeks ago (5 children)

Yeah, it's not associated with black people outside the US. It's how serfs or common criminals are dealt with historically.

Didn’t know Saddam was black

[–] Noel_Skum@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 weeks ago

He’s normally a type of reddish/orange when I see him lying down in all those memes.

Only $19.95 at your friendly Walmart!

Genuinely might get this on hoodie

[–] 5wim 24 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Despite initial reporting that the words were "deny," "defend," and "depose," police clarified the following day that it was "delay" and not "defend" written on one of the casings.

[–] sik0fewl@lemmy.ca 17 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I think it just means that there is a missing bullet (maybe never fired).

Obviously a reference to Delay, Deny, Defend, a common practice of insurance companies to maximize profit. The excerise is left to the reader to decide what "Depose" means.

"Three fired cartridge cases alongside three unfired cartridges were found at the scene. The words "delay", "deny", and "depose" were written on the cases. "Depose" was inscribed on a casing from a round fired into Thompson, while "delay" was marked on an unfired cartridge ejected as the shooter racked the pistol, possibly to clear a jam or intentionally discard the live round."

I mean... not to deny how based this is.

But you could potentially lose your job and by extension, your health insurance (and any dependents that are on your insurance plan also lose coverage).

Also cops are just gonna use that as an excuse to do police brutality.

It's ultimately your decision, but please consider the potential consequences.

Stay safe!

[–] reseller_pledge609@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 2 weeks ago (6 children)

I may not have the guts to wear this, but I would absolutely buy it and have it framed in the entrance to my house or somewhere visible.

It was today top question on r/legal. Is it legal to wear it? It is but YK

Wasn't "delay" instead of "defend"? Been finding both versions all the time.

You could just buy it and send it random big companies....

[–] snrkl@lemmy.sdf.org 46 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Or wear it to your claim rejection review meeting maybe?

[–] ShareMySims@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 weeks ago

Ding ding ding, we have a winner!

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago (6 children)

The shadow looks like it's supposed to resemble something, but I guess it's just oddly drawn.
