A T-Shirt Is Viewed As a Security Risk

If you are traveling through Heathrow, you might want to check to see what images are on your t-shirt. It seems that Transformer t-shirts may cause a security concern:

“A man wearing a T-shirt depicting a cartoon character holding a gun was stopped from boarding a flight by the security at Heathrow’s Terminal 5.

Brad Jayakody, from Bayswater, central London, said he was “stumped” at the objection to his Transformers T-shirt.”

Would wearing an all black ensemble run the risk of arrest? One never knows when fear trumps common sense.

WTF is wrong with the world. It’s just a T-shirt. Sometimes I wonder how these stupid people are getting jobs in the flight industry.
