    For all of those offended I say “Bless your heart”. I’m a teensie bit curious if you were equally offended to hear Trump talk about being rich and powerful enough that he can just grab women by their pussies. Seems probably not offended enough to not vote for the mysogenist bigot it seems.

    If JA had any balls he would have somehow worked in Ronny Jackson. That would have at least lended some dignity to an otherwise horrendous ( artistically speaking) poster. 
     Next time seek some inspiration from Ames or Shuss or better yet don't try so hard, let it come naturally. #ucantdenyme

    Is this poster going to lead to something like when John Lennon said that at the time, The Beatles were more popular than Jesus and this led to Beatles records and posters and memorabilia going into bonfires?   Or would it just be a few tiny campfires in a few hot red  states?

    No.  This is the modern era ... it'll be sold at highly inflated prices on eBay.  Gotta give those Jesus freaks in the 60's credit, they burned some Beatles stuff that I'm sure would be worth a buck a two today.

    I believe you are right!  Yeah, there will be some big-time flipping, for sure.

    A little better listening skills and critical thinking could have save some of the Jesus people a pile of money.

    Maybe if this was 1994.

    I think the big picture question is whether or not this poster could potentially impact this election.  Will people on the fence not vote for Tester because his name is associated with the poster?  I obviously don't know the answer, only time will tell.  
    Yes. Separate issue though from the "how dare they depict Trump as dead and being eaten by a bald eagle"-thing the Fox-outcry-fabricators yell about.

    Maybe Tester should have had leaned into it. Gotten popular with the kids.Been a rebel.

    Jeff sounds like Kanye. Too bad he didn’t have the balls to defend Kanye’s right to free speech in his magazine interview and instead slagged him for supporting Trump. Jeff didn’t get “dragon energy” and the Missoula concert proved it.

    Free speech doesn’t guarantee that you don’t get criticized for your speech, poster , or political affiliations at least JA welcomes all counter criticism....

    Seems JA’s statement has been lost on some. Not surprising.

    I guess I'm not surprised that you don't understand how free speech really works.

    Pathetic. So, so pathetic (also kind of hilarious - the more offended some people are from this poster, the more awesome the poster becomes). Come on America, pull it together.
