for the life of me I cannot imagine WHY you think no one cares. Of course the parents care. As do many other people. ID checking is waaaaaay up over anything it ever used to be, and while you cite these supposed ads targeting kids, I see many more ads telling kids it's wrong. I see many more ads from the beer distributors themselves saying to "drink responsibly". And I DON'T see them targetting kids, I see them marketing their product to ADULTS.

Not to mention the fact that some teen SEEING an add for alcohol, obviously intended to appeal to adults, is a far cry from sticking a fucking pipe in a 2 year olds mouth and firing it up.

you're reaching buddy.... reeeeeaaally reaching with this one.
