Just by the title you can tell this gets into censorship. The glaring word used here is 'obscene'. Obscene to one person is not obscene to another. Risky. Suggestive. Perverted. Cute. Exciting. Define these words in way that are universally understandable to everyone. You can't. Just like you can't define 'obscene'. You may establish a technical definition as used by the dictionary, but the definition collides with morality.
I chuckled when I read Tony Kennon was "mortified" by what he saw. Apparently not. He survived his encounter with the obscene T-shirt to ignite a personal agenda to save us all from the situation of wishing we could un-see something - like an obscene T-shirt.
If you want to see obscene, check out this baby one-piece:
How do you define obscene?
