Pro-Choice Billboards Take Manhattan
A billboard in Manhattan is causing quite a stir. Manhattan Mini-Storage often uses liberal messages in their ads (it's Manhattan, after all), but their latest billboard features a coat-hanger and the message: ""Your closet space is shrinking as fast as her right to choose." People seem to want to be outraged, and yet, in news stories, no one can seem to find a negative quote from anyone other than the Catholic League; people on the street seem to enjoy it. Your thoughts?

Wow
I think its hilarious, but I find it hard to believe more people aren't offended. Usually just the words 'coat-hanger' and a subtle reference to abortion always seems to upset people.

From a business stand-point, I think it makes no sense.
Manhattan storage has used poltics in its adds before:
