SteSteez said:Pigeonho said:Way over the top. Your paedo comparision was quite frankly rediculous, so i'll make another one. We are a nation, so is to be believed, of pissheads, yes? Right, so...... Stella Artois put the same ad on, but the blacks are replaced with whites and the white guy is replaced by a black man. The whites start to get rowdy, and the blackman pulls out a can of Stella. Now I would personally find that very funny, very very funny actually. Someone somewhere would kick up a stink and say its implying we're all pissheads, but as Scottyboi says, that would be a person who has led a very sheltered and quite a sad life.
You fail to acknowledge here that this country is made up of many different cultures and races, in your eyes this country might be famous for being pissheads but in other cultures who have been born in this country drinking alcohol excessively is frowned upon...
These people may just take offense to this Stella Artois advert - simply because its failed to acknowledge the fact that there are non whites who are English and there are English people who don't drink crappy, tinned alcohol thats full of harmful gasses.
So we should never do or say anything ever, just in case it offends someone some where now or in the future?........... sorted!!
And can i say i have taken offence to the "crappy tinned alcohol" comment, i happen to love the stuff and it is large part of my life and beliefs. so could please refrain from making comments like this again please.
people need to stop taking things so seriously and learn to have a little humility.
