Shell Corporation and porn: If you are guilty of wrong-doing, just give it a nice, PR label to hide the fact.
Following Scott Ott's style- this just released to the media :-)
Following Shell Corporation's pronouncement last week that it no longer considered the hardcore content of Penthouse and explicit nudity in Playboy to be pornographic, Shell executive Otto O. Meyers III today gave a similar rebuttal when questioned about Shell stores selling crack. "Our stores don't sell 'crack,' but 'stimulating-candy-sophisticates'. Our serious investigation in the matter has concluded these stores are not selling what the general public usually defines as a destructive, viciously addictive illegal drug."
The issue arose when police, emergency doctors, and a long line of politicians complained to Shell about the sale of the illegal, lethal drug at convenience stores owned by Circle Xtasy in southeastern parts of the United States. In just one week of its candy sophisticate sales, crime exploded in the region, when dissatisfied candy-sophisticate customers returned to Shell outlets for more and found the stores had sold out. Sgt. Boyles, of the Atlanta police department, confirmed the total of 50 armed robberies, 37 shoot-outs, and 3 arson fires that took place, leaving 84 people dead, including 5 passer-by children.
