Do you think Heineken should have pulled their ad that says sometimes lighter is better?

    I don't think that they had to pull it, I don't think that it was intended to be racist in any way,but in the end they made a business decision.

    If the ad offended people, they should have retaliated by drinking Guinness.

    Having read the arguments and then watched the commercial I can see that the people had a point. This isn't the first time they had to pull an ad due to a controversy, it's just the first time that a major celebrity brought it to the world's attention.

    I think it is a crock that they had to pull it, they meant nothing racist about it.
