"I read that the City of Chicago is suing Rockford-based Fire Department Coffee for alleged trademark infringement, claiming the company’s monogram-style logo mimics the Chicago Fire Department’s symbol and may lead customers to think the business is supported or endorsed by the city; the Fire Department Coffee website references the owners’ “years in military and fire service” and states it donates 10 percent of proceeds from every order to supporting ill or injured firefighters and first responders." - Naomi Waxman
