“If they don’t believe that, then Hugh Hefner is selling his magazines for the articles”

Stupid people continue to amaze me...

To go along with the fat man's ideology, we should ban Victoria Secret/CK/etc. ads cause it promotes sex and since he's obviously not getting any, it should be BANNED! I wonder if he also tried to sue McDonalds for their ads about delicious burgers that made him fat???

regardless i always find the whole "stop street racing" campaigners funny. This man looks like he consumed half a human for lunch and sweats while he talks.

here is something to think about fatty....

Every 34 seconds someone in the US dies from heart disease. thats 2500 people per day.

Every 33 seconds, a person dies from Cardio Vascular Disease in the United States.

sooo this guy is worried about the possibility that a FEW people might be conveyed to street race because of an ad.

But every time i watch Mc Donalds i go and eat my self till i feel like i cannot breath... funny how things work... maybe he should target global warming the the sweat coming off his fat head... or maybe he is just about to croak thanks to the BIGGIE SIZE

I agree there are so many other greater problems and he is worried about this, What about all the young people dieng because they join the military and go to Iraq? i guess we should ban that too because it promotes death.

I love the media and the dumbasses that throw their $.02 into things that know nothing about cars like the dude in the beginning talking.

I know that commercial made me want to go out and street race. Who else is with me? Now that I think about it the Need for Speed: Pro Street commercial does too.

Lets go!

Hugh Hefner does sell his mags for the articles. Supposedly they have a team of very talented writers. i mean theres still other stuff.

Umm....have you been outside your house in the United States? We are the KINGS of the 'It's not my fault' society. Americans rush to court for the most retarded of reasons, we invented the 'Politically Correct' movement, and are always looking for someone else to blame for our stupid decisions. Whoops! I killed someone...it must be the music I listened to. Whoops!! My kid is a raging spoiled brat.....it cannot be because I am never home, and never discipline them...it must be their teachers fault. Oh no!! I am fatter than all hell....it cannot be because I eat Big Macs every day....I think I will sue McDonald's for making this food and collect medical benefits instead of actually working out and changing my diet.

If you have ever been to Canada, you would know they are much more tolerable of certain things, but more strict on things they should be stricter on. They take drunk driving seriously, here in the United States you can have 10 DUI's, get caught driving with no license, kill someone, and STILL not go to jail. In Canada they never let you get that far before locking you down.

People in general are adopting way too much of a complex with blaming others for their actions. It happens here and in other countries, but we are the originators of the 'it's not my fault' movement here in America.
