Description: Larry Welz, best known for his adult comix character Cherry Poptart, released his image of Cherry in 1993 as a great anti-censorship poster. I'm sure he would dig you wearing this shirt, tho he might want me to change it to say "Fuck Censorship!" If you like this shirt, please donate, even a little, to the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund: http://cbldf.org

Description: 1985 was a really bad time to test the limits of free speech in America. When a San Francisco punk band released their new album that same year, it included a fold out poster known informally as 'Penis Landscape.' After an angry mother filed a complaint with the California attorney general about the poster, the band, their label, and a litany of others were charged with distributing harmful material to a minor. The free speech test was on, a trial ensued, and the 'No More Censorship Defense Fund' was set up to help defend those involved against an increasingly anti-free speech. This design was both a fundraiser by selling the shirt and an advertisement, as punks and free speech advocates alike wore them like walking billboards.
Description: Words like, “poopface,” and “jeez,” get regularly censored on TV shows by a network-run group called Standards and Practices. When Alex Hirsch was told to change a line in his show, the Gravity Falls creator changed it to, "Not S&P approved." Now it stands as an all-time great placeholder joke.

Description: On June 6, 1990, 2 Live Crew's “As Nasty As They Wanna Be” became the first record to be declared legally obscene after being banned in many parts of Florida. The rap group went after the government in court, losing when Federal District Judge Jose Gonzales made the ruling that the album violated community obscenity standards across Florida counties. As a result, the album sold more copies than it probably ever would have otherwise, and various 'Censorship Is Un-American' efforts ensued across the country, including this one that has been recreated since free speech never goes out of style.
