Yes, they are overrunning the ocean and eating everything in it. |

I don't understand how that shirt makes a statement.
It seems like you are trying to save the dogfish.
Am I missing something?

The concept is good but the shirt doesn't nail it home with someone unfamilar with the cause. I am sure the creative members here could come up with some graphics that would get the point accross. Raven?!  |

The logos belong to the U.S. government and are therefore in the public domain. It's meant to be a kind of tongue in cheek statement which I think will go over better with the general public than a simple "kill all the dogfish" statement. I don't think there is much doubt that the folks from NMFS will get the point when they see the shirts. |

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Oh man, and I thought that was swapped out for the "I support my local poachers and tax evaders." tshirt.
Honestly, if you can prove that dogfish created the situation that they're in ON THEIR OWN, please, by all means...
PROVE ME WRONG WITH CONCRETE EVIDENCE BACKING IT UP.
I'll even buy you a 6 pack of something German.
Yes, thats a bet.
It shouldn't be too hard to disprove that draggers nuking away on the scale of strip mining had nothing to do with it right? 
And everyone? Nah, Just you.

Agree. After I saw the thread (Protest) then saw the shirts...I thought the shirts were to "Save the Dogfish" |
Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.
