If You Don’t Laugh at This Then You Are With The Terrorists

I wanted to get some opinion’s in hopes to start a discussion on my blog. What do you think of these two pieces of advertising? I came across these two ads that I find quite interesting. Both where banned in the United States for obvious reason. I first heard about these in a few discussions I had around the office and then later in a magazine article. The article was talking about what would be considered an advertising “No Fly Zone’” meaning that’s territory in the advertising world that we shouldn’t go to. But is it a good idea to set borders for where advertising should go and not go when society has subconciesly caught on with our tactics and are getting bored. These two are examples of giving a “shock” value to the ad to obviously grab your attention. This is the first goal of advertising. What is your opinion?
