No, people are mocking you because you see fit to be a bigot and then claim redress for offence caused by an ad considered prejoratory towards persons of a certain class. Even if the Broadcasting Standards Authority was absolutely right in its ruling, it still wouldn't change the fact that you're a fucking hypocrite and the worst kind at that.

BTW, you keep dreaming that major shockwaves have been sent through the advertising industry, since the all-important C. Irwin made his supreme sacrifice! Now that the ad has been withdrawn, that will be the end of the matter, as is almost always the case. If an advertising executive did a cost and benefit analysis over the screening of an offensive ad and found that things will be in his/her favour, I doubt a slap on the wrist from the BSA will be a deterrant.

Edit: Just for you...
