PETA complains, Dodge responds
 

Auto company Dodge recently found itself in PETA's crosshairs after the carmaker aired a commercial starring a monkey dressed up like Evel Knievel. But, unlike many who draw the ire of PETA, Dodge fought back in an amusing way. :D:up::D

:har::har::har:

:up:

the invisible monkey should have blown its own brains out... just for PETA

How do we know it didn't happen....invisibility isn't only skin deep, is it?

I'd have liked to see the PETA office..........:woot:

I dont get it what was their complaint in the first place?

I guess its tourture to dress up a monkey like Evil Kenivl?

Not just any monkey...but, from what I can see...a CGI monkey :nope:

I know. I think that is the point actually. Certain groups, in order to remain relevant must always interject themselves in the most unsatisfactory way. But still very funny!!!

PETA doesn't have any really seriously evil practices to combat these days. Now, if GM had instead used a blind monkey with a sonar taped to its head... :lol:

Lol, Peta must not have much to do, as krashkart said.

If the monkey jumped a bike over the cars, they might have something to whine about. On the other hand, if the monkey was that good, maybe not.

On the other other hand:

"Does your meenkey have a laysance?"

"Sure"

The more PETA question is how dare you not ask for a licsence for your monkey. We will control your personal behavior!
:har::haha::har::haha:

Oh, there's always enough animal tortre and abuse, it's just that some pencil scratching PR bored-to-death bureaucrats want to take on some big guys, just for publicity

remember, NO publicity is BAD publicity

I wouldn't have even acknowledge them. Just make the commercial:03:

What about Ninja monkeys with sonar taped to their heads or.......Bears with laser beams:D

My next car will likely be a Dodge now! Great stuff! :har:

Wonder if PETA has ever seen "Trunk Monkey"? lol

it will take a lot more than this to garner my confidence in an American car.

Those Trunk Monkey videos were a hoot!

+1.

And I'm all for humane treatment of animals. But CGI monkeys can be shot out of cannons for all I care. (hear that, Dodge? It's your next commercial calling.) :cool:
