Yet another third-rate entrepreneur took a tip from that old axiom that says "Any PR is good PR." They WANT us to get upset so more people will hear about their restaurant. And this being Red County South Carolina, I'm sure many of them want a meal AND an opportunity to stick it to us uptight PC libs. The more noise we make about it, the more customers they're going to get.

I can tell this because the shirt doesn't even make any sense. If only illegal immigrants liked tacos, why would they be attempting to sell them to the general population?

I bet Taco Cid is no more Mexican than Taco Bell liberal N proud Jan 2013 #1
