LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's advertising watchdog criticized Italian fashion house Dolce & Gabbana Wednesday for a campaign showing models brandishing knives.
The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA), the industry regulator, upheld more than 150 complaints from people concerned that the stylized pictures glorified and condoned violent crime.
One of the two adverts, which appeared in the Times newspaper, showed two men threatening a man in a chair while another lay on the floor with a head wound.
It was printed last October next to an article about knife crime. There is widespread concern over the level of violent assaults in Britain.
This is what happens when you turn over your government, and culture, to the Left. You disarm your population so that people are helpless befor criminal assault then you respond to the crime wave by becoming terrified of pictures of weapons.
