Walmart/Coca-Cola Major 9-11 Oops!

[Jim Schue]

Walmart commemorates 9/11 with questionable Coca-Cola display

 

Is there anything more American than cashing in off a tragedy?

[frankdracman23]

Not sure that is really bad taste. It is not all that different from UC wearing the red, white and blue cleats for their game.

People get offended by the most innocent of things nowadays. :no:

 

I see ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG with this.

I see it as a teaching mome t to a generation born since the attacks. Its a shame we have become so divided in just 15 years.

We've been divided way longer than 15 years. More like 300+ and counting.

[plantmanky]

We've been divided way longer than 15 years. More like 300+ and counting.

 

And with that attitude towards it, it will never change.

[TheDeuce]

Yeah I'm not seeing an issue with it.

[Sportsaholic Mamaw]

There is a generation of Americans who have been born since that horrible day. They need to be educated for what happened, why it happened and the aftermath of how the world has changed since. The ad wasn't the best of ways to educate and make some profit from the tragedy, the eternal quest for the greenbacks. But I was not offended by it, just not that well thought out by WalMart.

[Wireman]

I've looked it over three times to make sure I understand but I see nothing offensive about it at all. People need to chill and enjoy this short life on Earth.

[HammerTime]

Not a big deal at all.

[PurplePride92]

And with that attitude towards it, it will never change.

 

Oh well.

[Clyde]

I'm with Jim. It's not about people being offended. It's about taste and appearances. Poor decision.

[Clyde]

We will ALL agree that this ad is the WORST!

I didn't have a problem with the first one but this ad is a joke.
