Just when you think people have stretched the limit of common sense, as we talked about last post, you hear another story showing the depths of the stupidity of those running companies and marketing departments.
I'm referring to the extraordinary outrage perpetrated by Miller Beer when they sponsored the Folsom Street Fair recently, where mostly homosexuals engaged in illegal, public, sexual acts. Some of the disgusting Miller Beer-sponsored actions can be seen here. Just be aware that these photos, while blurred some, will not hide the acts being performed publicly. Take a look to see what Miller Beer sponsored though.
For Miller Beer to sponsor this "event," if you could call it that, has to be questioned as to its business and marketing sanity. That something like this was allowed through company filters is beyond comprehension.
Miller Beer should be made to pay for its participation in this. Not only was it about the actions, but children were at the event as well, observing whatever was going on. There are also legitimate legal considerations in the actions being publicly displayed; especially with children present.
This company should be boycotted to the point of putting them out of business.
I personally haven't seen such a blatant disregard for common sense and lack of respect for regular, decent people by a company in my life. They need to pay for that disrespect.
