Mongols member got permission to get the insignia tattooed on his head -- after he shot two rival gang members.

injunction to seize the Mongols' trademarked name, a first for federal authorities. If the order is approved, no member would be able to wear a jacket or ride a bike bearing the gang's name.The Mongols have trademarked their name, which is usually accompanied by their revered emblem of a guy who looks like Genghis Khan, wearing a ponytail and astride a chopper. It's such a big deal to the Mongols that they control their emblem more rigidly than Chanel. The indictment says that one member got permission to get the insignia tattooed on his head -- after he shot two rival gang members.the feds want the United States government to own that trademark. That means anyone caught wearing a Mongols patch without the feds' permission could get busted for it right then and there, evidently for trademark infringement!
