OK. It seems like you're making a different point than the people


complaining about the billboard in the original linked article. I agree there doesn't need to be inappropriate levels of violence plastered on billboards, but the objections of the people in the article seems to be mostly concerned about the depiction of violence against women. No one said boo about the Mad Max billboard depicting violence against a man.

So your point is that neither image belongs on a billboard (from the standpoint of general good taste... not censorship). That makes sense to me. But the people who are only concerned with the Jennifer Lawrence billboard while ignoring the Tom Hardy billboard seem to be holding women to a different standard than men. I'm not OK with that.
