Silly. I don't see anything wrong with the shirt. I'd probably buy one for my kid if I saw it and it was affordable.

I wouldn't buy one, or put one on my kid. But if other people want to, none of my business.

Typical political correctness. Obviously it is a joke, but hyper sensitivity and wimpiness win again!

it's pretty obvious to anybody with an actual functioning brain that no kidnapper is going to put one on a kid... WOW.

I don't find it particularly offensive, it just doesn't appeal.

Indeed. And I've actually been accused of being overly sensitive at times. But I'm pretty liberal when it comes to joking around. Here at the house, you should hear (or maybe you shouldn't) some of the jokes we tell. We don't get vulgar, but we get just about every other kind of questionable you can think of! Sense of humor is very important, even if it gets a little dark at times. Think of how many parents call their kids their little monster without thinking about it. What's more evil than a monster? Even kidnappers don't typically EAT PEOPLE, so which is worse?
