In the polarized and racially tense environment we find ourselves in, I wonder how the supreme court would have ruled had the band members not been Asian American. Personally, given the circumstances and the intentions of the band members, it feels ridiculous that the government would have refused to trademark the name, however I'm sure a lot of people would feel differently if it was a white supremacist band named something egregiously racist towards minorities.

I'm sure some alt-right types will take full advantage of this decision to do what they do best - troll
