Well, there is a rather large African population that live in France. Still I have to agree that is a weird public announcement.
European TV and nudity is no big deal, I mean, most of it is done tastefully on normal TV shows. It seems the US has the weird beliefs in that aspect, I mean, show a boob and all hexx breaks loose, yet they produce more 'stuff' than probably the rest of the world combined. Go figure . . . seems it's either one end of the extreme spectrum or the other, when in reality, if you used common sense there is nothing wrong with the middle ground for 99.9% of situations.
Another extreme, in Europe, if you do sue somebody, you will NOT be awarded millions, you will be awarded pain and suffering in common sense terms, i.e., what in reality was the issue, who was at fault, and how much money did you lose from your job, etc. The US awards unbelievable sums just to prove a point? That somebody was wrong or the manufacturer did not place 'this rat poison is not intended for human consumption' ok, I'm being a little sarcastic but you get the picture. Big deal, but absolutely no common sense, JMHO.
