To the people who insist on forwarding an email that apparently is more effective than common sense:
I completely understand the use of graphic sensationally grotesque material for promotional purposes, although why it needs to be used for such an obviously dangerous practice is beyond me. To further add to my confusion is the question of how and why the graphic use of a man and his fully identifiable face was deemed worthy to be used for such a warning, and whether him or his family had approved of his dead, morbidly grotesque, entrailed, severed body for advertising a message – regardless of it’s intent.
I’m less disgusted by this image than I am with such an ignorant display of disrespect for the dead. If you’re interested in obtaining facts, get them from places like CBC news or an informed campaign. Please consider this, *if* you decide to pass it on.
A concerned graphic designer.
