The ad for "Free 2018 Gun Laws Map" violates the posted rules of this forum and should be removed.
Gun Laws are a hot political issue in the USA.

Most of the ads I see are related to shopping websites where I've recently browsed. That being said I have seen political advertising at VideoHelp from Google AdSense (rarely), but I haven't seen this one yet. I'm not sure these ads can be stopped if Google is choosing them based on our searches.
A funny thing happened while I was writing this. I went back to VideoHelp's home page for a moment and I saw an ad for an organization which has a stated political orientation, which is really odd because it doesn't match my political orientation or that of the news sites I've been visiting.
[Edit]@bendixG15 I just saw the ad you are writing about. It is for an organization, not somebody selling a map. There is no reason why I'd be seeing this ad either based on my searches.Last edited by usually_quiet; 10th Jul 2018 at 00:36.

Reading Google's policy (available via the AddChoices button at the top left corner of the ad), thread titles may be to blame for the political ads!
Google says:
This ad is based on:

That is not honest at all. It is called the Fallacy of Relative Privation, i.e., the complaint is unjustified because circumstances are worse someplace else in the world.

Don't get me wrong (i know you will get me wrong but anyway it must be written) - You guys (US) has this very unique privilege given you by very wise people long time ago - right to protect yourself against oppression of the bad government - this is completely opposite when compared to other so called democracies where government's don't allow citizens to protect themselves against bad government at all (take for example European Union full of slogans about human rights and banned death penalty however not many people knows that those EU bureaucrats created law legalising capital punishment against EU law Protocol No. 6 and Protocol No. 13 even for riots - this is part of so called Lisbon Treaty). You (US) are free (still but quickly loosing this) people, We (Europeans) are cattle in corral...
So if someone feel offended by gun then OK - i respect that but this is personal and he/she should behave individually not block en mass making big fuzz on whole forum. This was my point - I appreciate right to make own choice, don't like when someone choosing something for me in my name without asking me.

It's not the intention, the wording, or the history of the Second Amendment. That's a bastardization that has been in existence for about 25 years at most. Read the Second Amendment: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." It says nothing, or even alludes to, some mythic need for citizens to arm themselves against tyranny from their own federal government.

It says you have right to gun so at least in theory you may counterbalance government guns. This was my point. Please - this is sensitive topic for US - i know and i respect your perspective but topic was started with advertisement banner and my point was if you don't like particular ad you can censor internet by yourself not demand censorship from someone else.

Politics about death and weapons, gungho in so many ways. Those laws/rights were made by sensible wise people of the past(respect!) and now reduced to silly adverts on a video site! WTF! Video Help is video help for people not survivalists/para military types, nor NRA promotion. !
Let's move on!
