So, apparently power walking is for gay people? uh huh… This new MR. T candy bar ad has been pulled after upsetting gay groups.
The Mr. T shoots Snickers bars at a speed walker in the ‘Get Some Nuts’ commercial, yelling, “You are a disgrace to the man race. It’s time to run like a real man.”
Leading gay rights group claims the ad is homophobic, prompting the Mars company pulled the ad.
I don’t see anything gay in this this commercial, Stupid Yes, Gay No. What do you think about it?

All the snickers adverts featuring Mr T were quite funny so it is somewhat surprising that this action has been taken its just a light hearted advert i dont think many would object to it.

Exactly as you said: stupid, yes. Anti-gay, no. Some people just don’t know what to do to be considered the most victimized ones in society.
