One Million Moms upset at Skittles for 'promoting bestiality'

9 hrs ago

The conservative Christian group One Million Moms has worked itself up into an apoplectic fit again. The group, which once railed against JCPenney for hiring openly gay Ellen DeGeneres as its spokeswoman, now has the Wrigley's-owned candy Skittles in its sight. The group believes the silly Skittles commercial above, which shows a woman making out with a walrus, is inappropriate because, according to their statement, it "is taking lightly the act of bestiality." The group asks, "Does Skittles have our children’s best interest in mind?" We’ll answer that one! No -- we all know sugar leads to tooth decay and obesity. [Source]

Bear in mind that there are not 1,000,000 of them, that's just the name of their group.   In fact they have only a few thousand members.

Thanks for the info I didnt know that.. I dont know anything about them, never heard of them before.

I think they took their name from the "Million Man March" in DC a few years ago...which indeed did attract not only A million of them but over that amount.

Gosh, that was odd, LOL. I'm not offended by it, but there is that "eww" factor, LOL.

I can't stand the m&m commercial singing I'm sexy and I know it song. It took a week to get that out of my 5 year olds head.

I am not mad over the commercial I just think it is stupid.
