That Joy Division Mickey Mouse T-Shirt was sensationalised by the press

DirtyBurger64 [Edit] [Delete] 13:19, 2 February '12

I went onto Disney's Website to buy the T-Shirt, yet they took it off their site before I could buy it. Apparently it's controversial, but was it actually controversial?

I read articles about where the name Joy Division came from recently and yes, Ian Curtis' death was tragic. Yet it the long run of things, such points of topics are so trivial when you think of the whole notion of liking a band. Seriously, I thought Disney were being edgy and that Mickey Mouse playing homage to an engrossing, sad yet powerful album in Unknown pleasures was awesome.

Thoughts anyone???
