A TOURIST was told to turn his T-shirt inside-out at an airport ‹ as a
picture of two guns on it was deemed a SECURITY RISK.

Dave Osborne, 21, was bound for Newark, New Jersey, when guards hauled him
out of the queue for his Guns N Rollers T-shirt.

They told him the two pistols on the front could constitute a security risk
and upset passengers.

He was ordered to turn his top inside out before boarding.

The design engineer from Lichfield, Staffs, said: ³I am all for extra
security but this was just plain stupid.²

Last night bosses at Birmingham International Airport apologised and said
security guards ³over-reacted².
