|  Culinary Union petitions Toys 'R Us to remove all UFC dolls from stores
Culinary Union petitions Toys 'R Us to remove all UFC dolls from stores - MMAmania.com  Quote:
OH MY GOD THE CHILDREN ARE IN DANGER!
You know the drill by now. The gang at Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) get some traction and the Culinary Union tries to cut their legs out from under them. First it was Mandy Moore, then it was the FOX network. This time, it's Toys 'R Us.
Local 226 petitions the toy retailer (via Five Knuckles):
Quote: |
By selling UFC Action Figures, and by purchasing them, a message is sent to children and people with anger issues that this behavior IS acceptable. IT IS NOT. I believe in freedom of speech. I believe that parents are responsible for the choices they and their children make. However, by selling these cage fighting toys, Toys "R" Us, and by UFC, allowing their fighters to say these mean, hateful, violent, intolerant things at their fights, they are sending a message to children that it is acceptable to behave this way. I ask that UFC and Toys "R" Us be responsible for NOT promoting this behavior.

Makes me wonder if the CU actually believes any of the crap they beak off about, or do the meetings all start with "ok, what can we do to _try_ to f*ck with zuffa today?"

it's all good guys.... the public will drown them out with their silence...
the Phelps Family fuck-tards were silenced by the engines of 1,000 motorcycles...
these pricks will be rendered irrelevant by the sound of 1,000,000 consumers not giving a fuck.

I still say the best way to show the CU how you feel is to boycott any establishment who employs members of their union.
