I dunno, but I think that would make a pretty bad-ass bumper sticker...

I agree that the billboard was in completely bad taste and completely stupid from a marketing standpoint. The saying has become cliche for describing devotion to something. In actuality, most were tricked, forced at gunpoint, or in the case of babies injected with the stuff. Insensitivity is one thing, thinking a joke about mass execution would make clever advertising is another in my opinion.

So pirate affiliation is better?
Touche. I guess there's a more definitive split between fantasy and reality to me. Pirates have an idealized history in fiction separate from the truth and I suppose my experience with the former versus the latter weighs on my association. Jonestown, not so much. Maybe when they start making embellished cartoons of the Jonestown massacre with a heroic spin my association with the saying will change. Doubt it though.

If you're smart enough to join a cult that thinks mass suicide is a good idea, I can't help you.
He says that even as we are refining our koolaid mixture here for the big day!
