I don't think it would meet with many people's approval even though a great many of them will be atheist themselves. But to suggest that Editz will get his teeth kicked in is unlikely. Certainly not from the Christians.
This is England we're talking about. Not the the United Theocracies of America. And unlike Ireland / Northern Ireland, most people just don't care one way or another about religion.
Manchester. London Bridge. Westminster. It isn't the 'most people just don't care about religion' that are the problem. It's the crazies who do.
The Muslim population is only 4.4% of the total population in the UK, mainly clustered in communities, and an even smaller amount of those go in for those kind of attacks.
Editz is right in thinking that the main thing he has to worry about is the police. They are more likely to see the T-shirt as promoting hate speech.
Saying that, if he was unlucky enough to get attacked by a Muslim religionist it wouldn't be having his teeth kicked in. He would more likely be stabbed repeatedly.

The police would get involved.
