ScottMpls: If you're kid's afraid you, just kick his ass until he isn't ...

I mean "your" ...

"When I grow up I'm going to beat my wife."

WTF are these ads supposed to accomplish?

The ads don't address the adult victims of abuse, they are about the children. They are messages about murder, abuse and suicide.

One of the ads shows a boy and reads, "When I grow up I'm going to beat my wife." Another shows a teenage girl and states, "I will end my life before it even begins."

The concerned fathers who went to Tuesday night's DART board meeting say men are being unfairly targeted.

Methinks the gentlemen doth protest too much.

I'm gonna beat my wife ... run her down with a lawn mower ...

"they are about the children"

/it's for the children

None of those ads had to do with child abuse like the article/video states. They were all clearly about adult domestic violence.

Of course you'd say that. Get back in the farking kitchen biatch.

Yeh cos mens r teh eebil, evreybody noes taht.

Methinks they are right on. The whole pedophile mania is nothing but covet man hating. Let vaginas rule the world!

Truth hurts.

Because domestic violence is everyone's problem. (new window)

From TFA:
One of the pictures in the ads shows a black child with the headline, "One day my husband will kill me."

"I'm thinking in 2008 in Dallas, Texas, you're running ads on the buses that a black man is going to kill his wife on day? What does that say to a young black man? I was shocked," said David Russell.

Sounds like David Russell is racist. Why is he automatically assuming that the young black girl is going to marry a black man?

Watching the social fallout of this insanity over the next couple decades is gonna be hilarious.

generally speaking, im am really against the kind of knee jerk all men are child raping wife beating murdering sociopaths barely held back from indulging in the vices by the threat of PMITA prison. that said, this article really doesnt seem to be about men at all.


didnt read it all the way through though, boring as hell, maybe that picks up later

skinink: What do you say to a concerned man with two black eyes?

"Stop being such a biatch!"?

mindwreck: "they are about the children"

/it's for the children

I think about the children every day, right after I think about lube and before I think about cleaning up.

The Family Place, a shelter for abused women, welcomes the controversy because it welcomes the discussion.

"It wouldn't be a topic if it hadn't been provocative," said Paige Flink, Executive Director of the Family Place.

You are stupid lady. That's like saying it was good that whites enslaved black people because how else were we going to have a discussion about racial equality. You can have a discussion, if you want, without attacking people and inflaming them.

Well everybody "knows" that only men commit domestic violence, are abusive to their spouses, cheat, molest, abuse or murder their children, pee in the shower, and fart.

What, you think those are common traits amongst both sexes?

You misogynist!!!

Don't try and confuse us with your "facts" women are precious delicate flowers incapable of doing wrong and anybody who says otherwise is a boorish pig.

A similar campaign, aimed at raising awareness to the evil that women do would not only never even be accepted by the transit agency, if it were it would be so reviled and protested it would be yanked in a minute.

Get thee to a re-education camp!

Men bad, women good.

Repeat until you believe it.

/welcome to post-feminism 101
//even when a woman does something bad, it's still a man's fault

When watching the game:
Looka here you grab that biatch by the neck and squeeze till you 'choke a booger out her nose'^TM
/She will sit here ass down and STFU right after she fetch you a sammich

Damn it, they uncovered my feminist plot to rule the world!

1. Stop domestic/child abuse, which would naturally subjugate and feminize men
2. ...
3. Rule World with an Iron Vagina(profit)

Stupid men have foiled my plots again!!!

/cries and runs back to kitchen

Men don't commit acts of violence...Fluffy McTuffguy does.

\but he LOVES you
\\why do you make him do it?

I've heard of that group. Isn't it NAMBLA?

while i agree whole heartedly with the sentiment, i would like to point out you came THIS close to godwinning the thread way to early

Why is it that when people choose a cause they don't care who they offend in order to futher that cause?

hotlinked!!

It has a gripping third act.

Also, what Oh_Enough_Already said pretty much covers how I feel about the situation. Way too much polarization - just like in politics.

One of the pictures in the ads shows a black child with the headline, "One day my husband will kill me."

Perducci: Sounds like David Russell is racist. Why is he automatically assuming that the young black girl is going to marry a black man?

And it sounds like you're a homophobe.

/actually, I just came in to point out the same thing you did.

Cause Fluffy McTuffguy is Joe 24 pack and a American hero

And feel free to get a beer for yourself too, while you're back there! :)

They could always boycott the buses until the ads are pulled. Maybe that's an option they hadn't thought of...

"The Family Place, a shelter for abused women, welcomes the controversy because it welcomes the discussion free press."

FTFY The Family Place douchebags

For those concerned farkers who want to join these men in complaining, here is the link

Cubs300: They could always boycott the buses until the ads are pulled. Maybe that's an option they hadn't thought of...

I would say definitely vote down any tax increases for them.

That or buy ad space with little girls saying "I want to grow up to make false accusations for fun"

dumpstergirl:

1. Stop domestic/child abuse, if it's committed by men.
2. Ignore any and all evidence that show levels of domestic violence are approximately equal whether it's male on female, female on male, male on male or female on female.
3. Profit from the perception of female innocence and male guilt.

These signs make me so farkin angry I just want to KILL MY FAMILY

Kinda like this ad campaign that encouraged people to call and report any instance they observed of an adult male in the presence of a child?

Cue the myriad tales of farker father getting dirty looks from mothers simply for being in a park with their own farking children.

The law of unintended consequences has never had such an effect on any issue as it has with this unfounded "every person with a penis wants to fark your toddler pedo hysteria" B.S.

Because of shiat like this (AND THE LEGIONS OF FALSE ALLEGATIONS OF ABUSE OR IMPROPRIETY) as GOSPEL TRUTH when uttered by a female and must be un-proven rather than proven in both a court of law as well as the even more easily swayed court of public opinion) men are either leaving or never entering any career that involves children in droves.

Hence, entire generations of girls/young women are growing up without ever having had any positive or constructive male role models and/or mentors in their lives.

Subsequently they turn to their sexuality to attract the attention and interest of males and wind up surrounded with sleazeoids.

This validates the Helen Lovejoy's of the world belief that all men are predatory scum and the cycle repeats itself ad nauseum.

Get the picture?

It's kinda like the "when guns are outlawed only outlaws will have guns" addage except re-written as "when any man who is around children must be a molestor only molestors will be around children."

RoyBatty: The fathers are not protesting the ad about teenage suicide (don't do it.)

They must not know any teenagers.

No outrage over the ad that read "I will grow up to rape you in prison"?

I love how we've equated the subjugation of an entire group of people to ads on a bus.

Stay classy.

Ah...Mr Hyde...There is nothing Fluffy likes more after a long day of handing out righteous beatdowns than the cool, crisp taste of an american beer. I set my favorite thwacking rod (less than one thumb thick per regulations!) next to my rocking chair..put "Let the Eagle Soar" on my walkman and let the sweet nectar of Colorado's Rocky Mountains replenish my tired bones. Then, I doze off...dreaming of manly activities like sheep ranching in Wyoming with my best bud. No women anywhere. Just the warm sun on my tanned skin and my best man by side.

\god I love America.

I didn't fear my father so much as I feared the serving spoons. The folks moved on to large metal spoons after too many wooden ones broke over me.

Just as the myth of male teachers having the exclusive on screwing students has been shown a lie, so will this crap.

Men bad, Women good...
