| 814271 | 2009-09-27 03:57:00 | Because our politicians have no balls/brains ? | decibel (11645) | ||
| 814272 | 2009-09-27 04:12:00 | Just because the frogs cant hold their piss shouldn't impinge on my ability to watch alcohol ads | prefect (6291) | ||
| 814273 | 2009-09-27 04:58:00 | I don't recall many ads that I drink the beers. Steinlager classic is about the only one. Otherwise, do Tuatara, Wigram Brewery, or the Pink Elephant Brewery advertise? |

| 814274 | 2009-09-27 05:11:00 | Well why not ban motor vehicles? People are killed in them every day so they must be BAD. Whoops forgot that it isn't the vehicle that's bad, but rather the people that don't maintain them or drive them in a manner that leads to collisions with objects. Alcohol is fine in moderation. |

| 814276 | 2009-09-27 05:42:00 | Norway is the ultimate nanny state. They also have one piss factor we dont have here and thats the long winter nights which could even drive a teetotaller to drink. |

| 814277 | 2009-09-27 05:52:00 | I don't see a reason for banning them, or banning cigarette ads for that matter. If people stupid enough to be turned into alcoholics because of them it's their problem. It would be better to ban the likes of the Green Party for advertising and advocating the personal growth and use of marijuana. Surely? I wanted them to bad that hubba-hubba ad... It seemed odd... No Rubba No Hubba Hubba. :p |

| 814278 | 2009-09-27 06:12:00 | I suspect that the FTA TV networks get a fair bit of revenue from these ads. Banning them would generate even less revenue and we would get even more repeats and reality crap and nil sport.. If you want to ban any ads ban the Gov social engineering ones. |
