NOT ALL AMERICANS ARE LIKE THIS. I live in Texas. born and raised. and yeah there are ppl like that. but ppl like that are everywhere in every country. i think what the problem is, americans get tired of them self so they go to another country and bitch about the states.

@Enlazador9 I'm sure that this is where most disagreement comes from here, but I believe that vendors shouldn't show political or religious bias, since they're in a job that puts them in the service of customers and are therefore simply means to an end. That being said, some people will say "if you don't like the vendor, don't go to that store", but in my opinion it's the vendor's responsibility to be neutral, not the customer's responsibility to not be offended.

@harold3456 The whole point of the movie is that He didn't need to show his back. Would it pro or not christian, the vendor wanted the customer to be respectful no matter what.

Fuck hollywood! now i watch only short meter!

[harold3456]

@indabushwoman I dunno, even if it was a pro-Christian shirt, there's something to be said for the fact that he's wearing a misleading shirt in a profession where he rarely shows his back to people.

RELIGION IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT HAS ALWAYS HAD A DOUBLE MEANING PER SE: IT CAN UNITE... OR SEGREGATE, HEAL... OR KILL! AND IT GOES ON AND ON... AND UNFORTUNATELY SO IT GOES!
