What Were They Thinking

What kind of an idiot would rip off the classic Minor Threat logo and put it on a cheesy t-shirt for their mall chain store? The kind of idiot that works for Forever 21 that's who. Minor Threat were a band that stood in stark contrast to the 80's cliques that this shirt displays. Not to mention Dischord Records (founded by two members of Minor Threat) don't even sell merch for their biggest band Fugazi. Here is what they had to say:

The band and the label tend to deal with bootleg shirts on a case by case basis, acknowledging the vast difference between kids screening shirts for friends and professional printing studios screening shirts for profit. Obviously this absurd Forever 21 shirt falls under the ‘unacceptable' category."

Plus that is one ugly ass shirt!
