1. "Voting is for Old People" the shirt says
The back of it should say, "The Draft is for Young People".

5. boycott urban outfitters! UO owner is a repuke santorum loving homophobe!
http://www.philadelphiaweekly.com/archives/article.asp?ArtID=5725

(snip)

Yet Hayne himself is an ardent Republican. He is a financial supporter of arch conservative Sen. Rick Santorum, whose recent comments about homosexuals equated gay sex with incest and bestiality.

When PW asks Hayne about his financial support of Santorum, he initially denies it. And when presented with a computer printout of Santorum's campaign donors from the Center for Responsive Politics website--which cites a $4,650 contribution from Urban Outfitters--he responds: "I'll have to look into this. I don't think this is right." In fact, he and his wife have contributed $13,150 to Santorum and Santorum's Political Action Committee over the years.

Last year, when many retailers closed, Urban Outfitters opened 13 new stores and posted a $423 million company record in sales, according to Philadelphia Weekly. Enough, at least, for Hayne to give $13,150 to the re-election campaign of Republican Sen. Rick Santorum who recently equated gay sex with incest and bestiality.

8. support sweatshops & Republicans-Shop at Urban Outfitters!
Not only that, but most of Urban Outfitters' nostalgic fare is produced in sweatshops located in Turkey, India or Sri Lanka.
