Urban Outfitters added to its wardrobe of controversial clothes on Monday by introducing a seemingly blood-stained Kent State University sweatshirt that the retailer soon removed from its Web site.

Of course, in 1970, the Ohio National Guard killed four anti-Vietnam war protesters at Kent State University.

The public reacted fiercely to the salmon-colored $129 sweatshirt, which was splattered with faux blood spots, by accusing Urban Outfitters of stupidity and poor taste. Kent State, where the pain over the shootings runs particularly deep, said: “May 4, 1970, was a watershed moment for the country and especially the Kent State family. We lost four students that day while nine others were wounded and countless others were changed forever. We take great offense to a company using our pain for the publicity and profit.”
