Update on Azeri (Donkey) Bloggers' Trial

Our loyal readers of course know about the case of Azeri bloggers Emin Milli (Abdullaev) and Adnan Hadji-zadeh.

Here's an update from Reporters Without Borders: Journalists and NGO representatives were barred yesterday from the hearing, in which two of the three “victims” of the bloggers’ alleged assault gave evidence, delivering identical testimony, while Zadeh and Milli denied all the charges.

Supporters of Zadeh and Milli who were outside the courthouse wearing T-shirts with the words “I’m a hooligan too” were arrested and taken to a nearby police station.

To be fair, they were admitting to being hooligans.

I have a shirt that says "MD" on it. I do not, however, have a medical degree. Just saying.

Perhaps police could be given some T-shirts as "gifts" and everybody could be happy: I suggest this one :) http://tinyurl.com/ms75uj

PS. if this happened in the US, those t-shirts would be available for sale already and I would have one in every color. i guess what i'm saying is, where can i buy an Azeri "I'm a hooligan, too" t-shirt?
