Sounding very spunky, he Nashville-based seafood restaurant chain says it won’t stop airing TV commercials comparing its prices to those of Red Lobster, which has sent it a cease-and-desist letter.

Well, we’re not going to Cease and Desist, and we hope you’ll join us by visiting irefusetoceaseanddesist.com, where you can watch our response to Red Lobster’s Cease and Desist letter. And the first 1,000 visitors also get a free “I Refuse to Cease and Desist” t-shirt. Wear it with jeans, wear it with slacks, but most importantly, wear it with pride.
