HELLS ANGELS SUING FOR COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT IS SO UN-HELLS ANGELS





Daily Mail -"Hells Angels is suing over a T-shirt that uses the notorious biker gang's name. The statement tee by LA based T-shirt label, Wildfox, reads 'My boyfriends a Hells Angel.' Not only is the slogan grammatically incorrect but, more seriously, it has raised the ire of the gang by directly violating the group's trademark..The T-shirt maker did not seek the correct license from the group before using its name in the design. Amazon.com is also being sued for selling the T-shirts, which retail for around $60." 

I'm pretty sure the first thing people think about when they hear Hells Angels is a bunch of hard ass no nonsense dudes, just fucking shit up, riding in packs looking for trouble. Total disregard for the law and enforcing their own rules, looking to stick it to the man and not deal with the governments bullshit. The last thing I'm thinking is that when a problem arises, they'll just contact their lawyers and have "the man" handle their work for them. I've only seen one episode of "Sons of Anarchy" and I think I saw one group of bikers rape the wife of the leader of another biker gang, which resulted in someone getting shot in the face. Is that not realistic? The real problem though is that awful shirt is actually $60.
