Controversy

In 2012 McNairy put out a T-shirt design featuring capital bold-faced print MANIFEST DESTINY. Manifest Destiny was the belief widely held by Anglo-Americans in the 19th century that they were the divinely destined inheritors of the American continent. Thus, the violent colonization of indigenous peoples at the hands of Anglo-Americans was also considered to be "divinely" ordained.

Due to customer and public response, the tee shirt was eventually discontinued by the GAP, and McNairy responded by saying the meaning behind his design was misconstrued, and it was not his intention to offend anyone; however, neither the GAP nor McNairy offered an apology for the offending language.
