^^This. Regardless whether people are justified in being offended, the people behind this billboard should have had the foresight to realize that their message was going to be completely overlooked due to what would be perceived as an offensive image. Part of sending a message is proper communication, and communication is a two-way street. This means you have to craft your message in a way that people are going to be receptive to.
