Interesting advertising.

What's your opinion?

It's a joke, jeez.

He also said the Council on American-Islamic Relations would likely contact the dealer to “offer some kind of cultural or sensitivity awareness training.”

I wonder if the Council on American-Islamic Relations has offered the Taliban and AlQuada “some kind of cultural or sensitivity awareness training.” You know, so they stop thinking we like to see our people beheaded. Just a thought.

I have had the opportunity to see some of the rejected commercials TV/radio stations get and they are usually pretty bad so this one must have been a real doooosey. But just getting it into the news has given this Mitsubishi car dealership more attention then 100 regular commercials would have gotten it. Turbans off to their marketing guy.

Normally, I'm all bout insensitive jokes for the sake of parody, satire or just a good laugh. But to be honest, this stuff in the ad isn't really even that funny. The least they could have done is had a contest where everyone got a free car key, and the winning car key made the car blow up.

Hmm, I am with Major Robert Dump on this one. I am all for satire, but this just doesn't seem right.

The commercial's on youtube or thatvideosite, can't remeber which or find the link now but I saw it last week on one of them, its pretty funny.

As it's a related topic, did any of you happen to see the faked Volkswagen commercial? That should be enough to anger someone. Here:
