Arizona businessman selling “My Name is Muhammad” teddy bears
Meet the vicious teddy bear designed to upset radical Muslims around the globe.
Arizona entrepreneur Mark Bold, inspired by the school teacher in Sudan imprisoned for naming a teddy bear Muhammad, is making and selling teddy bears with “My name is Muhammad” embroidered on their stomachs.
Bold is selling the teddy bears on his site Teddybearmuhammad.com and claims to be selling them worldwide.
I’m hard pressed for words to describe this bear. Except that it’s clearly a joke. Please…a joke.
His header graphic refers to his bear as infamous.
The first paragraph of his website explains that Teddy Bear Muhammad isn’t the “silly, willy, nilly old bear”. No, while Teddy Bear Muhammad is a warm cuddly bear, he was created to agitate radical Muslims all over the world.
Cute and uncommonly cuddly, babies and parents alike will warm to the adorable features of this cloud-soft plush, Muhammad.
Show your support against intolerance and hatred by owning and proudly displaying the one Muhammad selling worldwide, Teddy Muhammad, and be a part of history.
There’s no way that’s not a joke.
Even if it is a joke where could they possibly going with this?
Some right leaning pr client?

This isn’t a joke, I know the guy and they’re for real!
Yeah. I got one. The guy was on the news tonight as well. I think they are selling all over the world. He is just calling attention to how pathetic this whole thing is. I say good for him.
This is awesome! I wish I had thought of this. Cool idea, I am going to get one. HAHA!
God, I love America…only here….
