[GraceAbounds]

Shock jock mentality = ignorant commercial that appeals to people who are ruled by emotion rather than rationality and wisdom

About as equally messed up at the video. And like the video, it should be considered a tasteless joke.

The comment was "Keep quiet about gun crime, and you might as well pull the trigger yourself" or something like that.

The implication is that if you dont report gun crime, someone you love may get shot.

 

[BiPolar Betty]

I for one am horrified by this commercial.
