You might not pay attention to race, but Gillette obviously did. See many minorities in these toxic men???

It has a lot to do with power and control just what power does the average working Joe or horned up teenager have?

Ya know, the most surprising thing to me is that Gillette is still in business after all these years, I tried their safety razor blades in high school and the throw away some years later and the Foamy stuff a couple times; every Gillette product I ever tried in 50 years of dealing with facial hair was at best inferior.
Did they change or are there just that many people that have soft whiskers?

>and yes I noticed the racism in the video, but we expect that don't we?

I can see that happening in Yaak ! I don't know what would be worse. The yanking of hair by the roots or the specter of that saw coming towards your head.

Who would be dumb enough to be disrespectful in a crowd like that ? ! shocked[/quote]


White, back then the local folks were a bit jumpy as a guy at a fire tower had been dismembered by a group of devil worshipers. From time to time you would see them along the road in remote places, their faces were painted white.
Folks from California were already streaming in, yep way back then.
I stagged my pants, wore suspenders and chewed Copenhagen just so as to fit in. Refined my poker playing skills and learned to like whiskey too.
I never met a finer group of people than I did there, if you were a decent person yourself you did not have to look for a friend, they were right there.

Most commercials and sitcoms portray men as bumbling morons who can barely tie their shoes... Especially if they're white heterosexuals.

Yes sir, Zim, there are lots of folks in the area who would be there to help out if needed . Thats just how the folks are at every gun range in this area, as well as others I know. Good down home regular people , polite, friendly, and true to the west, believe in an armed society being a polite one.

Those strange ones are never even heard about . I haven't and Ive been here a while and know many locals that were born here. Must have been like that one fella, and pestered the wrong folks smile Maybe that helped the wrong folks from moving in, too .....

Many from CA moved away, as back then, the summers were wet and very cool and often cloudy....hence the huge conifers that grace the area to this day. Not the hot sun climates they expected.

Lots of woods, mountains, sleepy little towns here and there....

The best of both worlds smile

If minorities or women were portrayed the way white, heterosexual men typically are portrayed in commercials, the liberals would go insane. Most of the greatest inventions off all time were invited by white men. We are now supposed to be ashamed of acknowledging that fact.

Mexican is a nationality, not a race. There are Mexicans of many different races and mix raced Mexicans. There are lots of 100% Caucasian Mexicans.

Is it small? No I believe they are targeting the majority of people, who they would assume would agree with this message no matter what their political affiliation, or religion, etc. Apparently they underestimated how angry and confused the majority is.


Gillette, it’s for pussies. Don’t forget to shave your (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman)...cat.

My moral compass is really spinning on this one. Im still trying to figure what common sense is. I mean common sense --- not the meaning of the word is is, lol.

I doubt any advertiser is interested in whats right or whats wrong, just the biggest spenders.

An old saying is "those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it". It was used by many leaders to get their point across and then one guy named Jim Jones used it as his slogans on signs on the back of his inside and outside thrones. It worked well with his brainwashing techniques. Blackmail is a powerful tool, whether its one individual or or country of individuals.
once people do a few stupid things then not only are they held accountable forever but maybe anyone resembling them. Was that Lady Justice that was blind?
Why cant boy scouts just be boy scouts anymore, Seems everything has to have a twisted moral these days. When people do things even after they repent and pay, they still never can get loose from some particular crowds. Once the stink gets out of a skunk it cant be put back in.
How many men do you know that could swing across a stage naked on a wrecking ball and recover. Maybe the better question is how many would want to in the first place?
Seems Apostle Paul had a problem in Acts 21 and 22 where he was spread out a little thin. Anyone who stands for right will always be pulled, and there he finds the meaning of Grace.

I shave my face about once a week, around the whiskers. Seem to be a lot of ultra sensitive males on here that are offended that I'm not offended. Kinda amusing when you think about it. But, find your safe space and hug your teddy bears for awhile and you'll feel better. smile
