Meet CBS 58’s Pet of the Week: Biship
MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- A vendor at the Wisconsin State Fair was ordered to remove a controversial t-shirt for sale.
The shirt had "LGBT" written on it, which in this case, stood for liberty, guns, beer, and Trump.
At least one person complained that the shirt was offensive to the LGBTQ community.
Online, other people took issue with the pro-gun shirts in the wake of two mass shootings over the weekend, but the stand was not asked to remove any others.
CBS 58 spoke to the owner, who says they're not out to offend anyone -- different fairs have different rules.
