for the life of me I cannot imagine WHY you think no one cares. Of course the parents care. As do many other people.
If they did, they wouldnt let their kids read magazines that are for young adults, but contain ads for beer.

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.
The article I linked CLEARLY said this is mags with teen readers, being targetted, not adults. I am not talking about carding at a club, Im talking about ads.

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. [/B]
I said I was NOT endorsing what these people did. And I am not reaching.

You say you see them marketing to ADULTS, when I link an article discussing TEEN MAGAZINES selling ad space to alcohol.

Im not here to argue about this, but the facts are there.

People obviously dont care because if they did something would be done. Starting weith not allowing their kids to read the mag, vs waiting until some college does research and finds this out ;)
