I cannot even make this kind of thing up.

According to Yahoo’s Big League Stew, Homeland Security came and whisked away a whole batch of Kansas City Royals-themed women’s underwear from a small, locally-owned boutique in Kansas City on Tuesday.

The underwear, which had the phrase “Take the Crown” superimposed against an overlapping ‘K’ and ‘C’, apparently were a copyright infringement for the MLB franchise.

The store owner understandably seemed terrified by the whole ordeal, claiming that it was traumatic despite the kind treatment she received from the Homeland Security officials.

"They placed the underwear in an official Homeland Security bag and had Honig sign a statement saying she wouldn’t use the logo.“We just thought it was something funny we could do,” Honig says of the panties. “But it was so scary.”They placed the underwear in an official Homeland Security bag and had Honig sign a statement saying she wouldn’t use the logo.“We just thought it was something funny we could do,” Honig says of the panties. “But it was so scary.”"

I honestly can’t tell if I’m more upset that this is a thing that happens in today’s society, or that I didn’t get a pair of the illicit underwear before they got confiscated. Had I purchased them prior to the raid, would I have gotten to keep them? HOW COULD THEY HAVE STOPPED ME FROM WEARING THEM?

Can’t stop, won’t stop.
