So what are we to do with all those cows now, make them sacred like they do in India and let them roam all over our streets? They'll be competing with the "protestors" for street space. If they do go out on the streets and I happen to hit one (a cow) I'm taking it home as road kill and eating it as it should be done.

First time I saw that commercial I couldn't even watch the whole thing. It's stupid, like the execs who okayed it.

I don't think it has anything to do with you. If I recall it correctly, Burger King is switching to beef from grass fed cattle instead of cattle fattened up by corn and other farm products. Grass fed cows are supposed to produce less methane. No skin off my nose if they do since we've been buying beef from grass fed cows for awhile now - direct from local farmers. Could have been a great ad campaign if they would do it right.

Except their clientele base is comprised of idiots. The commercial played to the intellect and interest of that base.

Burger King has history of weird.

The first video is from the 90s with Darius Rucker who became the biggest black country music singer in history. Got more number 1 hits than Charley Pride. This video was when he was with Hootie and the Blowfish. Glad Hootie got back together to release a country album last year. Burger King did not killed his career.
