Snickers nasty Homophobic ad pulled off TV


This is the second time Virginia based candy maker has had to pull Homophobic ads. In the ad, Mr. T berates a speed walking man with a little swish as a "disgrace to the man race” and threatens him with what looks like a gun.

The Human Rights Campaign Foundation criticized the ad as using stereotypes of gay men. It's the second time in a year-and-a-half that the privately held company has pulled an ad after receiving complaints that it was homophobic.
