I keep seeing this commercial on TV (Trumpy Bear...$40).

It is over two years and they are still trying to sell this crap? And it is marketed to construction workers, firemen, bikers, a lot of white dudes with mustaches, etc.

Neo-nazis use the "storm" metaphor quite freely. eg, their newsletter "Storm-Front", etc. This leads me to think that it's a neo-Nazi outfit pushing this *sweet, harmless teddy-bear*. When I saw that ad, I quickly blocked the TV channel, tracked down the channel's owners, and sent them a serious nasty-gram--the kind that probly could get me arrested if someone took a shine to do.
