The creator of a “FUCK the LAPD” shirt sold out not only his entire stock of that shirt but also sold out many of his other designs after the Los Angeles Police Department Foundation made an intellectual property threat against them that claimed they owned the letters ‘LAPD.’

    Better be careful. It’s dangerous to to speak out against powerful local gangs.

        It’s for your protection. You can always tell how well you’re protected by the number & severity of the injuries you receive from your protectors.

        If your protectors kill you, be honored, humbled, & thankful! Rejoice in knowing you were served & protected the best!

      I like the Black Eye Peas where is the love? Also Tupac and the NWA singing about LAPD gangs. The Wire is an excellent show that explains the system from the top to the bottom. We Own the City by The Wire creators is a mini series about gangs of cops terrorizing their neighborhood based on actual events. Jon Betnthal is such an underrated actor.
