Stations say ‘jihad’ car spots go too far
In the spot, Keith Dennis of Dennis Mitsubishi talks about "launching a jihad on the automotive market."
Sales representatives "will be wearing burqas all weekend long," the ad says. One of the vehicles on sale "can comfortably seat up to 12 jihadists in the back."
"Our prices are lower than the evildoers’ every day. Just ask the pope! " the ad says. "Friday is fatwa Friday, with free rubber swords for the kiddies."
The dealership was a little surprised by the hesitation to run the ad, Masterson said, although he noted, "According to the people who have heard it, it is the most controversial commercial they’ve heard in the last 15 years."
Calling the commercial aggressive, Masterson said, "This is one where we feel we’re taking a bull’s-eye on terrorists. After all the nonsense that the terrorists put the public through, they’re fair game."
But Aaron Masterson, general manager of Dennis Auto Point, which writes and produces its own commercials, promised that the commercial will air.

I cant even call people ''black'' over there.. I gotta call them ''coloured''
But if I did that with my friends from S.Africa they would take it as the biggest insult ever.

This is what's so amazing to me. Islam is expected to have a violent reaction to anything negative, but that's ok, it's us who have to change to account for the violence. It's like everyone has to walk on egg shells because we're afraid we'll get killed, blown up, or else a section of the world will riot and blow itself up.
What's even more amazing is that many of the same people who are up in arms over the Patriot act taking away some freedoms for Americans are the same people who defend this behavior and lash out at the supposed causes, those who practice their freedom of speech.
Then, to top it all off, no one seems to be commenting on the incredible irony of Islam's reaction to the Pope's words -- "Islam is a violent religion" "ROAR! No we're not, and we'll kill you and take over your nation if you say that again!" What?

CAIR representative as she tries to explain why this ad is so much more important to speak out against than those who are rioting and declaring a fatwa against the Pope, etc.

Nowhere in it did she say that the car commercial was more important than speaking out against Muslim extremists. What's the point of misrepresenting her words?
