I know Tragedy + Time = Comedy, but I'm sure not nearly enough time has past. I don't hate these guys for this epic lapse in good judgment, but I got to ask, what on Earth WERE they thinking?

Yeah, that was pretty frickin' lame... :| I think I'm actually more offended about the fact that they were trying to be funny and failed. Horribly.

Yeah. I actually felt bad tagging the story with "Humor" as both their idiotic commercial and some people's over the top reaction were anything but funny.

SGT Dave Tracy OK, it is insensitive and in poor taste. Everybody put your big boy/girl pants on and change the channel. Death threats, really?

I know...I know. Definitely not the brightest marking strategy this store could have come up with, but why some people can't simmer down and see it for the lapse in judgment it was I don't know.
