Americans For Drug Free Youth Launches National Anti 'Meth Coffee' Campaign

Law Needed to Stop Immoral and Scandalous Trademarks to Market Products

WASHINGTON, Jan. 23 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Americans For Drug Free Youth (AFDFY) launches national anti "Meth Coffee" campaign. Starting today, AFDFY begins its campaign across the country to encourage action by all Americans asking Congress to introduce and pass a law that would stop immoral and scandalous trademarks to be used when marketing a product. Present trademark laws and state laws forbid the use of scandalous and immoral words to be used in a trademark and or business name.

Back in October of 2006, James T. Kirby attempted to register a trademark "cocaine" for use in an energy drink, that trademark was remanded back to the examining attorney who initially approved the trademark cocaine for publication has now requested that the Trial Trademark and Appeal remand the case down for further examination by the attorney (himself). The Notice of Opposition was filed by Americans For Drug Free Youth and Students, Matthew Delaney, Jessica Fajfar, Angela Simmons, Irina Vinogradsky, and Mike Wendolowski, are members of the Progressive Intellectual Property Law Association.

AFDFY co founder Steven Steiner says we are weighing our options but it is clear now we must have a federal law that stops these immoral and scandalous names from being used in any fashion. Mr. Steiner is calling on all Americans to please sign the petition that is automatically sent to their local Congressman, Senator and the President to call for such a law.
