Anti-Islam San Francisco Muni ads defaced …. with messages of love
http://blog.sfgate.com/stew/2015/01/26/anti-islam-san-francisco-muni-ads-defaced-with-messages-of-love/

A clever street art activist in San Francisco transformed anti-Islam banners on the back and sides of Muni buses into action-packed messages of love.

The controversial ads, which equate Islam with Nazism, were plastered over with pictures of Kamala Khan, Marvel’s first Muslim character, as well as new taglines railing against the posters’ hateful message.

“Calling all bigotry busters,” one newly-modified sign reads. Another declares, “Free speech isn’t a license to spread hate.”

That is vandalism. Nazism and Islam has a strong alliance.

Some of the comments are equally stupid.

Why would someone want to stifle history and the presentation of facts? That seems reactionary and totalitarian.

 Saying ISIS represents Islam is like saying Westboro Baptist Church represents Christianity.

 You can't sound more pathetic or more stupid making such an inference.

 Wow, liberalism ain't much if just one vandal can take it down.

 I'm sure you're consistent, and would also point to one rogue conservative as a symbol that all of conservatism is broken.

 Explain, genius, why the buses were permitted to carry the signs in the first place.

 Oh right, that bit of truth would upend your nonsense completely.

@FreeMarketFan49 Why do anti-Muslims hate the First Amendment? Islam is a religion and Muslims are protected by the First Amendment. There are only a very few Islamic extremists and terrorists. Most Muslims are peace loving. The promoters of these ads want to take Freedom of Religion away from Muslims.

First Amendment applies to all whether you like it or not.

 Few are saying vandalism is ok. Perhaps it's your low comprehension that's not ok.

I wonder if this is some DUmmie.

Little do the libs understand free speech.

[Against the Decline]

First Amendment applies to all whether you like it or not.

Little do liberals know the fact that freedom of speech is a double-edged sword. Anything a liberal says, another person can completely contradict. It doesn't matter if the speech offends you on a general level, it doesn't matter if it's against your ideas, it is speech and it is protected regardless of who says it.

This vandal doesn't understand that fact, and they decided to destroy and suppress someone's rights because they deemed it hateful. It is ironic that liberals, who proclaim themselves as favoring civil rights, would so willingly suppress them if it does not fit with their agenda.
