Will Burger King ever learn?


[source: Reuters]

I just posted a few days ago that Burger King has a ridiculously offensive ad for their kids meal. Now, they have a ridiculously offensive ad in Europe for their Texican whopper. The ad features a short Mexican man wearing the Mexican flag standing next to a tall , good-looking American. All I have to say is, WOW! You have got to be kidding me. Apparently the biggest concern with the ad was the defamation of the flag. Although that is definitely one thing wrong with it, did no one else notice the portrayal of the Mexican man compared to the American cowboy?

I'm so glad that someone realized that the ad offensive and they pulled it.
