Oy vey
Consider the other side of the aggrieved vandalism promoter Shepard Fairey, of HOPE poster fame:
Some guy in Pittsburgh sells little baby Steeler mascots with the phrase “Obey Steeler Baby.” Shepard Fairey demands that he stop infringing on his trademark, which he originally made famous by ripping off the image of Andre the Giant!
Well, if that‘s who he ripped off, then he really does have guts, I guess!
UPDATE: Fairey’s got even bigger trouble than that.

Me thinks your dislike for Obama and the HOPE poster colors your thinking here.
I don’t dislike Obama. I do think I dislike Fairey.
Between this and his lying about which photo he used I am definitely starting to dislike Fairey (http://www.pdnpulse.com/2009/02/a-problem-with-shepard-faireys-lawsuit.html). Sad when the ‘good guy’ turns out to be a bad guy.
