These ads are sickening.

While riding on the subway, I've noticed these ads for a law firm with stick figures getting into accidents with a smile on their face and giving the thumbs up. Every time I see them, it makes me sick to my stomach. I can't believe the MTA allows these to be posted...it's like baiting people to get into accidents to sue for damages.

Actually, here's their website, the image on the left rotates through all their ads. The lead paint one is especially disturbing.

Does anyone else feel these ads just go too far? I know they're just stick figures, but the fact that they are seemingly celebrating their "reward" for injury sickens me.

there's a billboard around here (actually near Detroit) that just has the company's phone number:

1-877-I-SUE-BIG

sad.

Here in MS, lawyers (vultures) like that have commercials on prime time. Not to mention those big billboards alongside of the road. Not only accidents they're interested in, but also those prescription drugs people used a long time ago and they know it has bad side effects.:|

Funny, but these lawyers deserve to be given the chance to act out their own posters. :|
