Petition to take down DirecTV's body shaming commercial

You all read my thread on the DirecTV petite randy moss and thankfully sgc did an article on it. Our fellow short men on r/short created a petition on Change.org and we need you all to sign it! This is a pivotal moment to let advertisers know that height shaming is no different than the fat shaming that they stay away from in advertising in the modern era. We need 100 signatures. At this point, there are only 24. 

Here is the link:

Stop DirecTV's Offensive "Petite Randy Moss" ad.

I am seeing this pop up all over. I am black. I find most of their commercials offensive anymore. I would have dropped them if I had them over this. Glad I don't.
