Or you could also just wear a “I support Palestine Action” shirt but I was thinking it would be funny to mess with people.

    Since you’re talking about the UK, you could wear “I SUPPORT PALESKIN ACTION” with an image of a sunblock bottle and annoy almost everyone. Are you being racist? Are you mocking racists? Is it antisemitic? Is it joking about genocide? Do you think skin cancer is funny? etc.

    That approach to society is South Park stuff, though, which really should be proscribed everywhere.

      I actually hadn’t heard of this. Seems he got off though:

      He had been arrested under section 13 of the Terrorism Act 2000, which makes it an offence to wear anything supporting a proscribed organisation. A senior officer asked the arresting officer if he could arrest Pickering under section 12, which could have brought a more serious charge of supporting a proscribed group.

      “[The arresting officer] said: ‘No, I can’t.’ And they said: ‘Why not?’ He said: ‘Because he hasn’t got Palestine Action written on him. He’s got Plasticine Action written on him.’”

      About five minutes later, the arresting officer approached him again. “He said: ‘I’ve got good news and I’ve got bad news.’ I said: ‘What’s the good news?’ He said: ‘I’m de-arresting you.’

      “And I said: ‘What’s the bad news?’ He said: ‘It’s going to be really embarrassing for me.’ And then I walked free, while all the real heroes are the people that are actually getting arrested.”

        There’s been others to. I’m not gonna tell you not to do it, because fuck that, but just remember that most cops don’t know or don’t give a shit about the actual law, and this legislation has been rushed through to be deliberately vague so it can be misused.

    Might need to change the font and the color of some of the letters to make it ambiguous at a distance.

    I guess there’s a Penicuik Athletic F.C. in the Scottish lower leagues maybe a “I support Penicuik Athletic” or like a Plymouth Argyle shirt
