It's a nod to the "Magnificent Bastards," the official nickname of 2nd Battalion, 4th Marines, his former infantry battalion at Camp Pendleton, California.
But once a sign went up in the windows touting the new "Bastards," complaints flew around the city about its vulgarity and inappropriateness.
"It's not a curse word," Velez said in response to the controversy. "We are using it because of the 'Magnificent Bastards.' It's what we stand for." So far, the city has taken no official position on the name "Bastards." "He will be opening it," said City Councilman Mario Guerra, who supports Bastards.

He doesn't think that "magnificent bastards" uses the curse word? So everyone in his battalion was born out of wedlock, and are awesome?
Oh yeah, but there's nothing wrong with Hooters because there's a picture of an owl, but clearly we all know it's tits they are referring to.
