Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow....
Talk about a morbid ass commercial. I mean God-DAMN!
Seriously, its too bad we cant use a fraction of our resources for killing random brown people in areas where they dont want us (not criticizing the good men/women who enlisted, just the application of their willingness to "fight for the good of the country") to IDK maybe helping some brown people in other areas where they would want us. Maybe that would help the world scene a bit and change the worlds view of America.
I was going to put in a smart ass remark, but considering its pretty true, I think I'll let good taste prevail... for now.

Thats a pretty, uh, interesting video. I haven't seen it anywhere on our networks but that would certainly be one to get attention.
It's true though. There are tons of countries (Cambodia being one that springs to the forefront of memory) that have thousand of landmines planted and no way of knowing where they were put. Hundreds of people a year, or even more than that, are blown up by stray landmines. Most of the people harmed are children. I think it sucks and I'm not sure it should exactly be the UN's problem to clean up their paranoid mess, but they're not doing it so someone has to.
But seriously... spay and neuter your pets or the ASPCA will kill your family.

Oh, based on that, I think I've seen this before (viewing at work is a nono). If it's what I think it is, yea, it's very real... just not seen in North America.
Yet another message to humble the soul. I... can't, rather don't want to believe this is the reality for some many others. This commercial hasn't been shown here either... a little too close to home I'm sure. Why not though, everyone else has been desensitized, why not a shocking truth.

I think I saw it on TV here, but only once. It shocked the hell out of me when I saw it though.

Don't really understand why. It's a reality. If you're disturbed by it, then good, that's the point.
I'm disturbed my menstruation related commercials, YET THOSE ASSHOLES STILL AIR THOSE.
Yes, I know you women bleed and bloat a few days every four weeks. I don't need to be reminded of it about once an hour every day.

lol if you ban menstruation adds, please do the same with Viagra. Yes, it's nice you can have sex with your wife again. Good for you!
The way I see it, people enjoy viagra. Nobody enjoys menstruation.
Well, nobody I want to know about anyway.

Well for "lol" factor maybe, because I freakin' hated the smurfs.
I saw that commercial once also. I can't remember what coast I was on. It was either Oregon or Massachusetts. It was pretty disturbing. I mean it's certainly not what you're expecting the first time you see it and it delivers a very powerful and concise message (that United States of Americans aren't ready to handle).
I don't have TV in Hawaii (where I am normally) but do they really show menstruation commercials once an hour after 4pm? Maybe you should stop watching daytime TV, Skaw, which is clearly when women are home watching soaps and preparing for the man of the house to come home by making pies and cakes.
Seriously, if I had to see that "baby, come back" commercial with broken-hearted cleaning supplies one more time I was ready to plant a land mine in a soccer field.
