In consideration

Not having seen the picture, I don't know if the message on the shirt is intended to be humorous or not. If it is intended to be humorous then it is in very poor taste indeed. However, as Coolhand suggests, I feel inclined to view it as a sympathy vote. The message may be "Hey guys, spare a thought for the misfortunes of this region and give them all the support you can."

But then, a lot depends on the nature of the picture.

I agree with LivinLos that souvenir images of the devastation caused by the tsunami are morbid and insensitive.
