“When the gay rights group ignored the letter, it filed a lawsuit.”
Their lawyers not only talked to ProtectMarriage lawyers they replied to their letter telling them they have no case. Which was posted on Courage Campaign’s website. Hardly ignoring the letter and sloppy reporting.
It just goes to show that even those who discriminate against same-sex couples and our families, really do recognize the similarity to their own families! Of course they’ll never admit it – da** hypocrites!
They don’t have to. it’s their intellectual copyright. Trust me, I am a graphic designer. Even if you pay me to design you a logo, the design remains mine unless specifically stated in writing.
Sorry, joke or no joke, they could be in seriously hot water for this. Copyright law is a whole world of pain.

Easten philosophy says use an enemy’s own power against him. this is classic art of war stuff. Good on them use the similar logo. I think its kind of funny they are getting so uptight about it….its drawing attention to the pro gay marriage group. lol
