Unisex with a relaxed cut, true to size, S to 4XL. Garment-dyed heavyweight tee.

Soldiers are not police. Troops sent into American cities for everyday policing is the line the country drew on purpose and wrote into law, because a force trained for war is the wrong tool for a traffic stop, and the veteran in the tee served in that force and says so at every town hall. The difference is not a technicality. This tee holds the line.

Wear it to the town hall on the deployment, the veterans' rally, the constitutional law lecture, the city council session, and the family dinner where a relative says the troops will keep order. It is a strong gift for a veteran, a civil liberties lawyer, a police reform advocate, and the friend who read the statute.

The tee is a Comfort Colors 1717, garment-dyed in 6.1 oz ring-spun cotton, soft and evenly colored, with a heavier hand than a novelty tee and three lines that read across a veterans' rally. Direct-to-garment. It bonds with the cotton.

Unisex, relaxed, true to size. S through 4XL. Colors: Black, White, Bay, Blossom. Also Chambray, Graphite, Ivory, Banana. It is the wrong-instrument entry in the anti-Trump collection.

Designed and printed to order in the USA. Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Tumble dry low. Do not bleach or iron the design.

Printing and care
