Urban Outfitters has done it again!
ADL (Anti-Defamation League) National Director Abraham H. Foxman wrote to Urban Outfitters chief executive Richard Hayne to urge the retailer to remove the item.
“Whether intentional or not, this gray and white striped pattern and pink triangle combination is deeply offensive and should not be mainstreamed into popular culture,” Foxman said in a statement. “We urge Urban Outfitters to immediately remove the product eerily reminiscent of clothing forced upon the victims of the Holocaust from their stores and online.”

blood soiled Kent State jersey's commemorating the massacre in ohio also the highly inflammatory product of Adidas sneakers with orange shackles and chains attached the bad part is there is a consumer block out there that would purchase these things i think as some misguide sense of rebellion.  if you want to remember listen to this Isley Bros. 1970 "OHIO"  i know the original was bt Crosby, Stills and Nash i'm partial to this version i posted both for those who like the other version
