Goatse now illegal in the United States

Linking to obscene things as a prank is now illegal, but does that make my Goatse shirt punishable as well? Anyone who googles the term after seeing my t-shirt will get a face full of butthole, so do I deserve a pair of handcuffs? Fuck those jerkoffs on Capitol Hill. #
