A Whopper of a Mistake



I don't often sympathize with the Mexican sensitivity concerning their public image but I have to agree that this stereotype is over the top. This ad for their new Texican Whopper appeared in Europe shows a small wrestler dressed in a cape resembling a Mexican flag.
Not only is the diminutive size of the Mexican compared to the cowboy insulting but so is the misuse of the flag. I only wish Mexico would have as much respect for our flag and sovereignty as they have for their own.
P.S. as disrespectful as this ad is, at least it's not as creepy as the weird king that we get.
