I'm just watching a commercial for the "5th Anniversary 9/11 Proof" limited edition of coins.

They're made (or rather, probably washed, since they're $29.95 each) with gold and silver from the vaults under the WTC. Limit of five coins per order.

Is it just me, or is this advertising campaign a bit, well, ghoulish?

2. So are the ashes of the incinerated 3000 souls

included or did they wash all that stuff off before they minted their nifty coins?

SICK FUCKING SICK

HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE?

THEY'RE SELLING EVIDENCE FROM A CRIME SCENE FOR FUCK'S SAKE!

4. Are those the coins with the "pop up" Twin Towers

they were hawking for a couple of years?

Nothin' like good ol' American style capitalism to get the acids boiling in your stomach!

7. Those are the ones, yes. n/m

5. That's just sick.

:puke: :banghead: What is WRONG with people?

I was going to make some sort of snarky comment about Giuliani, but this is just so disgusting I can't even get my mind around that at the moment. :puke: Geez.

6. notice that they were made in 2006 -- still trying to move that stock

Evidently they weren't expecting quite so many people to be appalled by their tacky marketing gimmick.
