Driving a missile around New York City won't get you into trouble, but violating a trademark sure will.
Political protestor Arye Sachs painted the phrase "Viva Viagra" across a replica missile and drove it around town, distributing politically-themed condoms. No go, said the courts:
"people would mistake the missile for a Pfizer-approved ad." Wait, really? Pfizer, however, has since launched a series of animated commercials featuring 'Stiffy', the Viagra-popping Minuteman Missile. The similarity to Sachs' protest is circumstantial they say: Pfizer cl! aims they got the idea from the Nasonex bee, because
that god-damned bee is so fucking sexy.
