Re: How Do You Feel About This Ad?

I hate when companies use our Veterans for marketing purposes.  HOWEVER, this ad really bothers me because I think they are using it to take attention away from the fact that there has been a petition online to boycot Under Armour because of their support of "trophy hunting" wild animals.

It would be helpful for people to read what that is all about as well and not just form an opinion based on the fact that the petition is out there.

@maestra, I'm a bit at a disadvantage here because I cannot explain further.
