Well, no they are rejecting it because it is shocking to watch little girls explode, but TV stations in California ran an anti meth ad that showed a house with a little baby in it exploding. Why is one OK and the other is not? People I guess are more willing to send tough messages about drugs then they are about land mines. This is likely because they've been hearing weaker messages about drugs for a long time and they are desenitized to it.
