In case you live under a rock or don’t give a flying f**k what the ‘West’ is up to these days you would’ve noticed that the Empire is having an ‘election’ again soon. Given that the world’s greatest democracy has the least democratic electoral system imaginable these crafty kids have come up with some brilliant alternatives/additions to voting. I would say that they are probably more influential too.
Firstly to ward off the chills of fear as you step from your safe wee house to jump in your Hummer to run down to the conscience devolving, oop I mean polling station, check out this gorgeous quilt.
Department of Homeland Security Blanket
Endorsed by the White House and Fox News, this colorful scrap quilt is a guide to our ever-changing security alert levels. Each level is labeled with embroidery to distinguish a DHS Blanket from a gay-pride flag. (Note: Blanket is not a safety device. In case of a terrorist attack, DHS Blanket will not protect you.)
Next up is the cross stitch of the year! Obviously an immigrant…

Finally, my absolute favourite. And I will point out that this child is OBVIOUSLY displeased with being exploited for political gain. Not like Tara. She loves it. ‘Cause she knows mum is on the side of good.
Pro-Life Baby Onesie
Make pro-choicers feel the shock and “awwwww.” Embroidered appliqué reads “I’m Alive!” If you have twins, make another one that says, “Post-Born Fetus!” Why abort a baby when you can use it to express your political views?

I think homeland security blankets should definitely be included in the next anti-terrorism showbags distributed around the nation. & I would humbly question your assertion that it won’t protect against attack - I think it would be every bit as useful as the fridge magnets in the last goodies packs.
