Worst. Idea. Ever.

13Oct06

I usually don’t post crap from Boing Boing, since everyone reads Boing Boing, but this is undoubtedly the worst idea I’ve ever heard of.

They’re making toy Frisbees look like landmines as part of a landmine awareness scheme. You pick up the Frisbee, and on the bottom it lets you know about the perils of the millions of landmines strewn around the planet.

Educating people about the dangers of landmines is a Good Thing, but their execution is this campaign is at best idiotic and at worst, criminal. Think about it from a kid’s perspective. What these idiots at Clear Path International are doing is training the kids of Singapore that all you have to do to get a free Frisbee is pick up this thing that looks like a landmine. Really frickin’ smart move there guys.

Why does no one ever think of the children??
