So, here I am, working on something or other and sorta-half-kinda watching CNN, and I notice a commercial with a little kid playing with a model plane. All of a sudden the plan flies out the window, turns into a F-22 and roars of finto the sky.. I missed the beginning of the commercial, but I did here this gem:
"..you see, at Lockheed-Martin, we are also developing the next generation of fighter aircraft to..." [protect, help, take care of, people for years to come....or something like that]
I was reminded of the Saab commercials with the fighter aircraft they build being compared to their cars.
Why is it okay to "advertise" fighter aircraft that drop bombs on people and shoot other aircraft down and people shudder at the idea of mainstream positive exposure for guns.
What am I missing?
