PlanetAvP pointed out this little product. Does anyone else see the flaw in this shirt? The innuendo?

I see the innuendo; that's because my mind is always gracefully in the gutter.
What my big question is, isn't t-shirt hell breaking copyright by making that shirt? Or does that fall under parody?
If so, then I am going to start sending my t-shirt ideas to a printer.
EDIT: Noo, Digi, get this shirt. |

This is an adult shirt. It only comes in adult sizes.
It's using the wordplay of literal context.
If you removed the graphic of the baby Predator, you are left with a t-shirt that says "Child Predator". In the US, there's an epidemic (or rather, there's a massive culmination of capturing) online CHILD PREDATORS. Men (and some women) who prey sexually on children.
So, by removing the picture, you are left with what it's somewhat implying. "I AM A CHILD PREDATOR. I LIKE TO HAVE SEX WITH KIDS." But putting the picture of the baby Predator, and it's a two way, "Oh god your shirt says child predator...oh wait, picture of a baby predator, nice." It's technically getting away with having your shirt say child predator on it. The "STOP CLUBBING BABY SEALS" is another example. You would think it's about clubbing, as in beating a seal to death, but in fact, it's about clubbing, as in taking seals out to nightclubs and partying with them.
And that's why some people don't get it. |
