Sears stops selling “Infidel” hats after Muslim complaints

Islamic supremacist Imraan Siddiqi complained to Sears about the hats, and it was apparently his complaint alone that was enough for them to remove the hats from sale. After he succeeded in strong-arming Sears into removing the hats, he screamed “Allahu akbar”:

Seriously, I was actually going to ask him yesterday if he knows ‘Legion’, but I feared his response! (Mark 5:1-20)

Before every trip, I pray for God’s protection for the kids and the bus. I’ve also started praying specifically for this little boy, that God would heal his ailment and reveal Himself as Jesus, rather than the God his parents worship.

I see a knight, with a sword and a shield, mounted on a horse. AFA the design on the shield? What I see is possibly, a stylized Cross. I guess 'political correctness was in play, even then. Since the 'Crusaders' folded in 1976, I believe a person would be hard pressed to find out what the design meant, at least from the designer.

. Going farther afield, how about the 'Crusaders Football Club' from Northern Ireland's logo?
. (Though I thought the Cleveland logo would be better known on this side of the pond.)

I’ll rather have my Ron Francis Hartford Whalers Uniform, thou the Cleveland Crusaders were good...I need one to put in my hobby/sports room (with a few Whalers items).

Those were some awesome uniforms, and I still break out the Brass Bonanza as my ringtone now and then.

I have two of them. One khaki and also in black. Wear them all the time. Most people have no idea what it means, even though they are infidels also.

I am probably not the person to ask about what Christians should do.

But I understand the sentiment well.

[Augustinian monk]

That’s a good design. What looks to be a sort of “all-seeing-eye”, in the middle of a triangle, is what jumped out at me on the other one.

[A Formerly Proud Canadian]

Now I see what you mean.

I don’t think the ‘all seeing eye’ worked very well. The Crusaders got kicked out of Cleveland when the NHL changed the California Golden Seals into the Cleveland Barons, and the Crusaders became the Minnesota Fighting Saints (2nd edition). The Fighting Saints folded in 1977.

Not sure why that link doesn’t work. Trying again, slightly different version:
