Common sense dictates that airports and air travel is not something to fool with. Using words like bomb, die, death, and the such tend to scare passengers. I'm surprised he got pass security wearing this shirt (assuming he was wearing it and/or it wasn't covered by a jacket). I have not seen this movie and someone wearing this T-shirt would have made me wonder if this guy was sane or not. I agree with the passengers and would have complained to security for even letting this guy on board.

Wow.

Did you kill his father? Is that why the shirt makes you nervous? Anyways he could have just used the Sideshow Bob defense.

Lawyer: But what about that tattoo on your chest? Doesn't it say, "Die
Bart, Die?"
Bob: [conciliatorily] No, that's German for "The Bart, The."

Wow. Common sense dictates that it was nothing but a harmless shirt and the only ones disturbed by it are those who must have missed the common sense boat.
 
It's a borderline thing I guess, the movie is old enough that some people might not get the reference.

However if it was more obviously referencing a movie. Such has having Inigo Montoya on the front with the quote and the title of the movie it would be a lot more clear.

However, upon being questioned about more oblique movie reference from the name tag t-shirt and explaining it... I think it's rather unreasonable to be accosted by a flight attendant about it.

Admittedly the name-tag shirt is cooler than a hypothetical one with the title of the movie on it.

Bullshit.
 
were the nervous he was going to kill them? so if he took off the shirt, he wouldn't kill then any more? i don't get it.
 
Also, personally, I know I keep a wide variety of shirts around describing my current state of sanity/insanity, and would always be sure to equip a 'hello, I am now going to murder your face' shirt before committing any violent crimes.

But seriously, come on...really now. If given five people in a lineup, and asked which one you thought was most likely to murder you...do you think it would be the guy in the 'I'm gonna murder you' t-shirt? I wouldn't.
 
Wait, no.

Ban this guy first:
