whoa. $5

Excellent! How did you use this to protest?

The image itself is the protest.

I fell the recent changes to TSA procedures (either submit to a porno scan or get groped) to run completely counter to the 4th amendment.

With any luck, this image will foster dialogue.

Oh I get it now....

This is an awesome concept. Did you happen to see the skit on Conan, the TSA one? It's hilarious.

Nice job.

The statue of liberty is much more fit then I imagined, not that I was dreaming about the statue or anything...

awesome shirt!

hmmmm.. has been in the running for 4 days. takes that long to print the shirts. So either they saw it on his website and asked him to submit it, or it was literally approved the second it came in.

I'm going with the former seeing as he just joined and this is his first submission.

If this is true, then it's a bit fishy, hey it's your company, Threadless, but at least be upfront about it. So was it it an honest-to-god submission or curated??

fuck TSA $5

what the hell?

Aside from the fact that I find it weird the shirt is already on sale before scoring has finished, I feel this shirt belongs on bustedtees/snorgtees, not Threadless. I know the topic is extremely sensitive at the moment, but it will pass. Goddamn current affair-themed designs! Boooo Threadless.

oh man...

wytrab8

I'm with Montro

timpaint

needs a flag, dead eagle, some guns, guys with blue hands.

Art should be timeless, not timely.

At least 3KCM had huge comments and score. This is just unsettling and wrong that this should skip scoring altogether.

bcrider

Man. I was kinda hoping I'd just missed the scoring on this, but I really want this shirt.

Zen Studio

wow it printed already!!!!!! congrats!!

m e l i a r t e

In respons to AdderXYU:

Art can't be timeless. It can only be relevant for a short or long period of time, and this is hugely relevant! It is a bold statement of cultural production and I'm refreshed to see real art on a T-shirt (no offense to pretty and clever things, I love them too). It skipped scoring exactly because art is timely. Every bit of it that has had an impact in our world coincided with perfect timing.

mangobajito

This is brilliant!! I'm glad it's printed :)

Vampiro Macerado

congrats, this design has been chosen very great design

sikc18

Congrats. Great print!

Gar0

Fresh

gamar

GENIUS!

bottleHeD

Why is it still in scoring anyway? Even without the option to score it..

evolveORdie

probably that's just the way the software works... this is (i think) the first shirt to ever be printed before the 7 days were up.
