Some think it’s “cool” to wear a Che Guevara image

Posted By on March 31, 2010

I hope high school and college age generations realize how just stupid and unpatriotic it is to wear images of Che Guevara. If you care about your freedom and liberty … and democracy in the world, think twice about the message you are sending prior to buying or wearing his image. Che shirt

Che Guevara is not the “do good-er” that those overlooking the entirety of his life would have you believe. His much celebrated diplomacy and ability to inspire change through words is what supporters want to remember, but a bit more reading and study (even if you agree with his political views) exposes a ruthless killer who chose silence of those who opposed his views. He was not unlike the Taliban when it came to to enforcing his communist agenda.

“Our every action is a battle cry against imperialism, and a battle hymn for the people’s unity against the great enemy of mankind: the United States of America.”
– Che Guevara (Message to the Transcontinental in 1967)

    Needless to say, I am one of the few teenagers at my school who refuses to wear his image. Patriotism = dead. Great.

    Glad to hear it Grumpy … nothing wrong with questioning our government, our elected politicians or even the fairness of our political system. Unfortunately “power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” At least with our corrupt government “we the people” have a voice and can still vote for change.

    The absence of term limits for congress makes removing an entrench bureaucrat difficult … but the power is still with the people unlike dictatorships and nations who have given Marxism/Communism a try. Personally I think we would operate better with 2 terms for the House and the Senate. (8-12 years of ‘service’ is enough … making it a lifetime career isn’t beneficial to the nation as a whole)
