CAIR can go to h@ll. I will think, speak, and do as I please. From what I read the ads sound funny, and if the dealership wants to air it, let them. I am sick of these murders. It is time to hurt them. I think muslims should be unconquered in the middle east. Those guys stole it from others by the sword, they can be rolled backed by the sword.

Tough titties--this is America and we're free to advertise as we see fit. Too much "sensitivity" makes us weak. Screw you who have a problem with it.

Does anything except murdering nuns, decapitating bound hostages, blowing up children and burning down churches NOT upset Muslims?

I'm beginning to believe in evolution: given enough time, dogs and pigs will breed and produce a Muslim.

Most of the majors in Columbus turned it down.

Well, that depends. I believe the Clear Channel stations haven't said no. As for those not running the ad, Radio One is minority owned and listened to, and Sunny 95 targets women from 25-54 (not usually a conservative bunch here in Central Ohio.)

But, the two big Rock stations in town (WLVQ and WBZX) are pretty much guaranteed to run the ad, and I would suspect WTVN, the big AM news-talk station will run it as well.

Look up "thin-skinned" in a dictionary -- next to the definition you'll see a picture of a Muslim...

As much as I dislike what I've learned about islam in the last five years, I surely wouldn't be attracted by advertizing like that.

I guess they have learned that buyers that respond to TV for autos are Jerry Springer viewers.

Seriously, well done. Everyone should do what you did.

If the hajjimuzzies want a culture war, then let the games begin! Me and my 30-06 are waiting.

He also said the Council on American-Islamic Relations would likely contact the dealer to "offer some kind of cultural or sensitivity awareness training."

This from the group that thinks the crescents on outhouse doors are part of some racist conspiracy...
