So not only am i apparently breaking copyright laws (which i might add they didn't say anything about my Miller genuine Draft earrings that are tagged "miller") but THEY DON'T EVEN LIKE MY STUFF AND WOULDN"T LICENSE IT ANYWAY!!!!

WTF!!!???!!!

(p.s. i just re- read it and it lokos like they are specifically referring to coors but it also blankets Miller - so double fucksticks)
