Samsung recently released a web based video that attacks hunters and insults us, putting us in a very bad light.
On August 26th PETA released a statement stating they would be bestowing their “GOODY” award to Samsung for their viral video.
Here`s what PETA’s Executive Vice President, Tracy Reiman had to say, “Samsung’s ad reflects society’s evolved attitudes towards animals and shows that compassion is a far better marketing tool than cruelty.” Reiman then went on to say that hunting should not be part of a modern society.
Here are the videos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=maUfx2iUThY

We urge all sportsmen to stop buying Samsung products, if you do you’re fueling the anti’s fire.
The problem is that this shows hunters a plain stupid rednecks, what we as hunters must really put up opposition to is the marketing company that designed this ad campaign. Yes it is Samsung’s choice in the end but the company who put this together for them is the bottom line anti-hunting supporter. Find who this company is and then start the email campaign to boycott all Samsung products if this company is ever heard of in association with them again.
If you make it bad business to write ad campaigns like this you will affect the marketing industry and in effect cause change far faster than going after the foreign giants of the electronic industry.
