The other day, some blog named Wonkette, ran a very vile and disgusting article about Sarah Palin and he son, Trig, who has Down Syndrome.
I really don't care about the Wonkette and Palin, but I care a hell of a lot about people with Down Syndrome. Not only did article rip on Trig and Palin, the author then called another Down Syndrome child an "it". This is not satire, this is just plain evil.

Well, I was pissed and wrote a letter to Toyota and protesting their advertising on Wonkette.
I got this response from Toyota:
Thank you for contacting Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc.
We apologize for the offense we have caused by our ads appearing on Wonkette.
Toyota doesn't sponsor this site but the ad may have come through one of our ad network buys.
We have taken steps to ensure that our adds no longer appear on this site.
Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to receive your feedback.
Sincerely,

Again, if Wonkette wants to rip Sarah Palin, fine. Palin is a big enough woman to handle the abuse. But when you go against defenseless children with disabilities, then you crossed over the line and you need to pay the price.
Thank You, Toyota.
