Colombian Death Squads Terrorize DC With Tourism Campaign Featuring Severed Human Hearts

colombianheart.jpg Some genius in Alvaro Uribe's tourism office was all, hey let's get the gringos to vacation here by showing them the "heart" of Colombia, exactly as it would look freshly ripped out of the ribcage of an 80 -foot campesino lured into the jungle with the promise of work. This is the creepiest ad campaign ever invented.

Update: the resistance is on.

When did the Aztecs get to Colombia?

Personally, I can't think of a better way to get people's minds off kidnappings than to erect huge statues of severed human organs!

The aortas are cool, and the heart is pretty topical with the popularity of vampire and zombie movies these days...

"That red sculpture looks a lot like the red monster from the old Warner Brothers cartoons (the one who wore sneakers and got his hair styled by Bugs Bunny.) Am I the only one who sees the resemblence? [sic]"

Nope, I see it too.

Such an innnnnnnteresting monster!
