Group protests 50 Cent’s movie ads

Outdoor ads for the upcoming movie, Get Rich or Die Tryin’, starring gangsta
rapper 50 Cent, are angering a group of parents in Los Angeles who claim the ads promote violence.
Duh. That’s the nature of gangsta rap, and 50 Cent’s first claim to fame was
that he survived nine gunshot wounds, including one to the face, as a drug
dealer in New York. Still, this group wants the ads removed. One of them shows
the heavily tattooed back of Curtis Jackson (50 Cent’s real name) as he holds a
baby on his shoulder and cradles a gun in the waistband of his jeans.
