Disney Seeks Trademark On 'Seal Team 6'

The Grim Reefer2 writes "MediaBistro has learned that the Walt Disney Company has applied for a trademark on the phrase 'Seal Team 6,' the name of the special forces unit that killed the world's most wanted man. Disney now owns the exclusive rights to put Seal Team 6 on 'clothing, footwear, headwear, toys, games and entertainment and education services.' Disney made the move only two days after bin Laden's death was announced." According to a report in the Orlando Sentinel, "this is not the first time a company has trademarked SEAL Team 6. Previous owner NovaLogic, Inc., abandoned two associated trademarks in 2006. Those trademarks focused on computer and video gaming."

It'll all be part of the new Abbottabad Pavilion at Epcot Center. Osama bin Laden will be executed twice Sunday-Thursday, 4 times Friday-Saturday. Following the assault reenactment, dead Osama and Seal Team Six will take pictures and watch porn with the kids.

Disney has not done something this unconscionable since they closed the "Gurgi's Treats and Eats" food pavilion in the Magic Kingdom in the 1990s.

Fuck yeah, Slashdot's first raid! Let's the the old GNAA back together and troll the shit out of them. All the network admin who work for large companies that they refuse to name can launch DDoS's off of work computers and claim a virus monster attack. Our expert programmers that are so well informed that there expertise extends to things like educational policy and patent law can hack into their gibsons and destroy all their data. The very few that are left will have to be content with sit ins at Disney Land, spreading the word in a calm, unbiased manner, just like Slashdot headlines. We shall set the time of attack at 2000 hours, Slashdot time on 5/20/11 (that's 20/5/11 for you people who always feel the need to inform us that you are not American).
