Terrorizing T-Shirts
‘I am Not a Terrorist' Shirt States the Obvious
Make a political statement with this very cool shirt. According to the designer, "After reading about blogger Raed Jarrar’s experience at JFK (he was forced to take off a shirt with Arabic writing on it or miss his flight; new BBC article), I finally stopped being depressed about the war on terror and began being proactively pissed off. I made this shirt, which says 'I am not a terrorist' in Arabic. I plan to wear it every time I go to the airport from now on." - Its Not All Bad
