What happens to the other products Walmart recalls, like lead children items, or cans o' Botulism beans? Are they destroyed, or just offloaded to discount stores?

Shepard Fairey's OBEY company made a tshirt with the same skull and crossbones on it. It really is a matter of if you dont like it dont buy it.
]]>Hardly the same thing.
]]>The story here was Wal-mart's weak recall efforts. If Consumerist wasn't talking about this, you could buy the shirt and wear it everyday for 50 years and no one would recognize the symbol.
]]>Anyways dont buy them if you want but I dont see the big deal. I never see complaints about the Che shirts.
]]>"Would of..." "Wouldn't of"... Speaking of smart and dumb, which I believe you were, have you ever heard of the construction "would have", not "--of"?

(eek, I wrote "Nazi"!)
Wal*Mart is EVIL!!!!
You just know that poor outlet store bought all the poisoned dog food and all the other junk Wal*Mart forced them to buy.
I feel sorry for the outlet store, being forced to buy Wal*Mart rejects and all.
Won't anyone please stop Wal*Mart from forcing outlet stores from buying its rejected crap????

Well, naturally!
You wouldn't want to pay full price for tainted food, would you?
I mean, geez...that's just common sense!
]]>I agree with most of the posters in here. It might have been in poor taste, but they are free to print their shirts however they want, provided they don't break decency laws.
Maybe I'll buy one and wear it for a Haloween Party as an idiot punk rocker with offensive taste. See! There is a market for everything!
]]>@urban_ninjya: Prepare for flaming in 5, 4, 3, 2......
]]>These are perfectly good shirts. All it really have was some offensive imagery. You can buy Nazi uniforms at the Army supply store, so it's really just offensive in the eye of the beholder. If I were walmart, I would of donated them to the Salvation Army in some lower income community which wouldn't of been educated enough to recognize those logos for a nice fat tax write off.
Oh wait.. arn't those mostly non-blond hair blue eyes parts of the country. Ooops.
]]>And I WANT ONE! Besides the whole Nazi thing (Just like the swastika pokemon card and handbags), it is a cool looking skull.
]]>The fact they sent this shirt out to those stores makes me curious though. Did they tell this store what the stock they were buying WAS? Because if that store is willing to say they don't care...then maybe they knew what they were buying. I imagine Wal-mart doesn't want to take the financial hit of just trashing the shirts.
]]>Their is a store crappier than Walmart? I thought they were already at the bottom of the retail barrel. Wow, this is news

]]>Be sure to follow the distinction between it and a Jolly Roger skull and crossed bones.
]]>@mrmysterious: No wonder the 90s-era Buffalo Bills have such a huge following in Africa.
]]>I hear Wal-Mart also has a wide selection of white robes with hoods and masks, and some really nice swastika boxer shorts, but I don't buy them because frankly, I think they're tacky.
