Controversial Harley-Davidson Billboard Sparks Debate Across America
A Harley-Davidson billboard created by the Bayside Harley Davidson dealership in Portsmouth has sparked controversy due to its use of a curse word. The tagline reads, "Leave all the bulls**t in the wind behind you," and has been met with complaints through phone calls and social media posts. General Manager Shawn Robinson defends the ad, stating that the language used is intended to resonate with those considering purchasing a bike and hitting the open road.
Many parents in the area expressed their displeasure with Harley Davidson for creating ads they believed had a negative impact on their children. While some argue that the ad is not inappropriate since it is designed to speak to bikers, parents of young children also make a valid point as it was posted along a public highway. The debate highlights the importance of balancing free speech with public decorum and the need to address pressing issues in the community, rather than fixating on a single billboard advertisement.
