[QUOTE="PT Stewie, post: 948486, member: 12889"] [SIZE=4]Money grab from unscrupulous retailers Urban Outfitters are continuing to sell offensive St. Patrick’s Day merchandise despite an outcry from Congressional leaders and the Irish-American community. The clothing store has still not responded to countless media requests since IrishCentral broke the story. A trucker hat with the tag-line “Irish Yoga,” featuring a stick figure vomiting shamrocks, is just one of the items which has prompted public outrage. As well as selling various St. Patrick’s Day themed products in their stories, there is also a designated “St. Patrick’s Day shop” on their website, selling over 30 items such as “Leprechaun Piss” and a “Kiss me I’m drunk or Irish, or whatever” t-shirt. IrishCentral’s New York office has been inundated with calls, emails, and messages from people voicing their disgust over the flippant portrayal of Irish-American culture. ABC network, Fox News, Daily Mail and many other outlets have carried stories on the fallout from the products. [/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
