9/11 Commemorative $20 Silver - DISGUSTING
 
Saw this commercial on TV and almost vomited, this is just plain disgusting IMHO...

Deserves to be shafted, shot, beaten, etc...of course, no way to actually 'reach' them.

Shaft it too

So pissed about this, blatant profiteering while trying to make it look govt issued.

I laughed when I saw this ad. its a fucking joke

directfiesta 07-13-2008 07:31 PM

A lot of people made money or careers on 9/11 .. nothing different here.:2 cents:

payd2purv 07-13-2008 08:48 PM

I dunno it's a 20 $ bill made out of silver? that's kinda cool if you ask me.

It is lame that it's about 911 tho..

Deej 07-13-2008 08:51 PM

and how they say its from the gold in the vaults...

very lame... its just a revenue scheme benefiting from a national catastrophe

hypedough 07-13-2008 08:54 PM

9 + 11 = 20, now everyone can profit off the death of others!

pocketkangaroo 07-13-2008 08:56 PM

Think about it next time you go to a Memorial Day sale, a July 4th celebration, or buy a turkey for Thanksgiving. People make money on death, this is nothing new.

Poor taste cashing in on a tragedy

I want an actual piece of the WTC.

1.8 Million tons of debris removed from the World Trade Center site, and I can't even get one little piece.

The real topper is that the WTC steel was sold to China for about $120 per ton, and then recycled into products sold back to the US. You could actually have WTC steel in your home and not even know it. It could be in your car, the screws that hold your desk together or maybe the handles on your kitchen cabinets.

Yet one little bolt gets put up for sale as a memento here in the US and people cry bloody murder.

Clearly it would have been far, far more appropriate to use that steel for the domestic production of bombs and bullets and nothing else.

Capitalism ain't always pretty :disgust

... who was in the White House when all the CIA warnings came in of an impending attack. And still, you voted for him to make an encore.

Okay, politics and flaming aside, that's pretty fucked up but expected.

wow lol hahaha

Black_Widow 07-14-2008 12:16 AM

How is it any different from profiting selling cancer bracelets. Its fucking capitalism.

libertygone 07-14-2008 12:45 AM

hahahaha what a stupid piece of junk to buy.

Sarah_Jayne 07-14-2008 01:42 AM

not sure why anybody would want to own something like that

Vendot 07-14-2008 01:45 AM

Im not so offended by that but i can see how it could cause offence. At the end of the day, its a silverware and its (for some people) a way to remember what happened. Also a way to remember what the world was like prior to 9/11.

They didn't even offer to donate some proceeds to the families of the victims? If not, that's pretty shitty.
