An ad I've heard on local radio is offensive. The ad is for a pest control company, and
 
in the ad the narrator compares pests to liberals, saying "they want to re-distribute your wealth."

Is it worth it to complain to the radio station and/or the company about this?

PM me if you want to know the name of the company.

4. Interesting.

Apparently they want only RWers for customers. It doesn't seem like the smartest advertising idea ever.

Yeah.

Who wouldn't want a bunch of hysterical, pick-a-fight-over-every-minute-detail, self-entitled assholes for customers?

5. A phone call or email to the company owner might be worthwhile.

He or she may very well be part of that conservative echo chamber, without any appreciation for the fact that liberal radio listeners---potential customers---are offended by the ad. Things like this don't get any better without action being taken.

The owners of the radio station need to be taken to task, as well.

Oh please.

If you had heard, on your own terms, that the owner was a RWer you would have demanded he be reflexively boycotted.

These are the whiney little faggots that have a smart phone app to help them avoid purchasing any product that comes from a Koch family holding.

7. I think it's worth complaining to the station. Do it in writing so they can't ignore it.

I'm pretty sure the ad already cleared the various desks.

9. Why not post the company name and website here?

They chose to publicly air that ad.

11. Agree. They were not ashamed to associate the company name with that ad.
 
No reason the OP should not do the same as the company did.

And what, exactly, is the nature of your complaint?

Why is it wrong to say vermin want to redistribute your wealth like a liberal?

Sounds like truth in advertising to me.
Liberals are vermin and pests.

Off topic but somewhat related.

In July of 2012 WBT radio in preparation for the democrat convention in Charlotte N.C. dumped a black conservative radio host for 2 liberal morons. This was the 3 pm to 6 pm slot right after Rush. Well, that went over real well, they are gone. I was just reading some of the comments at the above site.  :lmao:

Liberal radio doesn't sell.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

Notice the hyper sensitive, permanently offended, bitch-boy DUmmie never said that the ad said "pests want to redistribute your wealth, like a liberal".  It heard "redistribute your wealth" and automatically assumed it applied to liberals.  It has been my experience that when you toss a rock into the pig pen, the pig that squeals the loudest is normally the one you hit...
"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

They don't think that any thing that is written can be ignored. Except for the Constitution. Maybe that is the reason that DU absolutely has to have an ignore button.

I wonder if the raccoon DUmmie lives near the Aerows DUmmie. If so, we may have been viewing the posts by Aerows a little incorrectly.

If everyone is telling you you deserve something, vote for the one who is promising you the least. Be suspicious of the man or woman who tell you deserve everything. Because you don’t.” ---Mike Rowe

Well you see.... some got a laugh some got offended.  Their ideology is so ever changing that they can't even keep up with it.  Feels good to be a conservative where we know where we stand.   They are so freaking freaked up they don't know when to be offended or when to be happy about something.   :mental:

23. Here's a link:

http://www.patriotpestmgt.com/media.aspx
 
It's the first link "Pests are Liberals"

Please let there be enough people offended by this to make their lives miserable.

In Taylors, S.C.  5% democrats. 

Please let there be enough supportive emails to make you miserable, Kiva.

ETA, and off-topic.  I found the stupidest post of the day, and here it is:

Doesn't the federal government have jurisdiction over the IRS?

 seems like this ruling should easily be overturned.

Why are they so ****ing ignorant about our system of government and the rule of law?

Taylors S.C. ???? is that where the DUmmie lives......Taylors was home to "Greenville Junior College", now it's a 4 year school and is called what?

BTW: That's getting into the whitest area of S.C. and that's the reason for so few democrats.
