Do some people have nothing better to do? The Advertising Standards Authority has received 50 complaints about this advert from Swedish flat pack company Ikea.
Amazing. If people think that this is upsetting their children, they should probably ban them from watching television altogether, as there are far worse things than this in todays ad breaks. Failing that, they should give their kids a massive dose of man-up.
If they think it's incititing anti-social behaviour or violence, then they should not rely on the television to bring their children up for them, which i suspect they are. If you drag your little darlings eyes away from the tele for long enough, you can teach them things such as manners, respect and the fact that vandalism in real life is, of course, unacceptable.
Unless it's in your own garden, which this advert is. If you want to buy an army of ceramic people to put in your garden, then use them for some sort of target practice, that is your business. Knock yourself out!
Either way, i'm fairly sure that these 50 people need to get a life. And they definitely shouldn't watch the fabulous and absolutely hilarious childrens film, Gnomeo and Juliet. It would probably give them a cardiac arrest.
