I'm in a card store. Not sure for what occasion. As a curious person I look at different things that catch my interest.
There a card that proclaims on the front something like; "Best Valentine's Gift ever!".

I'm not sure why I didn't yelp, curse aloud! Might have quietly gasped!
And since I'm someone who who doesn't always hold back on strong descenting opinions...
I wonder why I didn't (maybe bc I was too shocked) march right up to the counter w offending card in hand asking why allowing such violence-promoting trash in their store!!!
(yeah, yeah, First Amendment...) it wasn't like it was my local card store who would see me again!
O M G!

What's worse is there are Men Like That still out there in Our Country! (Not to mention elsewhere)

is under no obligation to sell an offensive greeting card and you'd have been well within your rights to demand that they not display or sell it.
