Facebook Ad Contains Photo of 9/11 Terrorist

SLbigE writes "A Facebook Ad for auto insurance includes a drivers license containing a photo of 9/11 Terrorist Mohammad Atta! From the article: 'WJR engineer Paul Roy saw this ad on his Facebook page today. The ad mentions that he was eligible for savings on auto insurance and includes a photo of a Michigan Drivers License. No big deal right? WRONG! If you look closer at the ad, you’ll see the Driver’s License includes a headshot of 9/11 terrorist Mohammad Atta!'"

    But 9/11 was an inside job, there are/were no terrorists.

    But we can admit that this picture looks the hell like a driver's licence picture. Unelegant however from the ad buyer, but this was maybe his best way to have a good ROI. At least, if the story gets a lot of attention.

      Well, they're unlikely to get sued for using his likeness and I doubt a defamation claim would stick.

    Facebook owns any image you put of yourself on it and can use it in their marketing or sell it to third parties.

      If it was a facebook image, your comment would make sense. Try reading ANY part of this instead of just commenting. Troll.

      According to Wikipedia, Facebook started in 2004. This guy stopped using the Internet in 2001, or so the story goes.

      Whoosh. The guy flew a plane into a building well before Facebook started, hence, the original comment is pointless.

    Motherfucking shit. I was just masturbating and everything was going great. I was in my room, i had my headphones on, i was totally naked sitting at my computer fapping away to a video on redtube. All of a sudden there's this really sharp pain in my dick, like it just got stabbed with a sewing needle. I jerked my hand back and it bumped into my computer tower, which sits on the desk. Well, i had my stick of deodorant on top of the tower, and that bitch fell off and landed deodorant-end-down on the head of my cock. Holy fucking shit did that hurt, and on top of that it hit so hard that it actually forced some deodorant into my urethra. I've never had anything burn so bad in my entire life. I jumped out of my fucking chair and stood up because it hurt so bad; this caused my headphone cable to get yanked out of my speakers, which caused "oh yeah baby come deep in my tight teen asshole uh uh uh" to get blared through my fucking house and almost maximum volume. Now my eyes are watering from the pain of the deodorant inside my cock but i manage to punch one of my speakers hard enough so they turn off. I looked down and noticed blood dripping off of my cock; i guess the lip of the plastic deodorant thing bit into my foreskin as it connected with my cock. The blood was dripping down my leg.

    This all happened in the space of maybe 6 seconds. It may seem bad but it gets worse. Just as i'm standing there trying to figure out what the fuck happened, my bedroom door fucking opens. My dad was standing there with my acceptance letter to johns hopkins. I froze and he stared at me, naked with my bloody erection for maybe 15 seconds before he noticed my computer monitor and the brutal anal sex scene going on full-screen. He immediately closed the door and left without saying anything. This may seem embarrassing but my dad is a seriously conservative christian. This happened about 15 minutes ago and he hasn't said anything to me yet. I'm still in my room trying to get the god damn fucking old spice out of my cock. What should i do slashdot?

    They've all been alive throughout parts of EU complaining that their photographs are being used.

    I hope everyone doesn't think that among all the debris from the WTC tower rubble to not survive, allegedly Atta's passport and shit survived all the wreckage that not even living skin survived.

    Look up Silverstein's demolition of his building 1/4 mile away from the WTC towers; he insured it for over U$ 2 billion just a couple weeks before, then he is caught on video records saying that him and fire department had no choice but to "pull it" because it "was being targeted." My friends, in that short 45 minute time-frame there is no way that a fire crew could collect enough dynamite to rig a building for demolition in what would have taken 1 week to accomplish a trained crew.

    It all stinks!
