Extreme Anti-Islam Ads Are Now Running On San Francisco's Buses

Anti-Islam ads appeared on 10 public buses in San Francisco on Monday, showing "inflammatory quotes by Islamic fundamentalists" accompanied by "an anonymous terrorist," according to Transportation Nation.

The ads are paid for by the American Freedom Defense Initiative, whose executive director, Pamela Geller, told the New York Observer in December, "I refuse to abridge my free speech so as to appease savages."

The San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (better known as Muni) says it cannot reject the ads, based on a September court ruling that decided New York's Metropolitan Transportation Authority could not do so.

The American Freedom Defense Initiative has bought space on San Francisco buses before, to display ads that read "In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man. Support Israel. Defeat Jihad."

In response, Transportation Nation reported, Muni bought space on its own buses, to run ads in protest: "SFMTA policy prohibits discrimination based on national origin, religion, and other characteristics and condemns statements that describe any group as "savages."

Geller's group has also run similar ads in Washington, D.C.'s subway system.

Here's a photo of one of the ads, sent in by reader Olga Timofeyeva:

"...statements that describe any group as savages..."

Ha! First, these are Muslims talking about Islam. Second, they don't think it describes them as savages, they see it as describing their beliefs.

Free speech! You may not always agree with what is said, nor like how it is stated, but that's what it is to live in a free society. You have the right to free speech, you do not have the right not to be offended.

I’m surprised they let her post them on the buses. I hope she has her security reinforced; I predict an assassination after a call is placed to the WH

Liberal hellhole San Francisco abides Pam Geller’s shedding light on the evil that is Islam, yet the ACU and CPAC shut her out because of her anti-Islamic views. Deep irony, that.

More like public education.

Maybe conservatives can put an ad on the buses asking why the Department of Homeland Security has bought 1.6 billion bullets...

This is obviously hitting them where it hurts, but it opens the door to some even more dramatic follow-ups that importantly, could be targeted to particular groups in SF.

Instead of just one big text message, they could print several with a smaller font. While you might initially think that fewer people would notice it, that is true, but those who approached it so they could read it, would give the messages extra attention.

Abu Dawud (4448) - “If a man who is not married is seized committing sodomy, he will be stoned to death.”

al-Tirmidhi, Sunan 1:152 - [Muhammad said] “Whoever is found conducting himself in the manner of the people of Lot, kill the doer and the receiver.”

Ayatollah Abdollah Javadi-Amoli of Iran said in 2012, that “Homosexuals are inferior to dogs and pigs, since these animals do not engage in such acts.”

Mohammed’s first successor Abu Bakr reportedly had a homosexual burned at the stake. The fourth caliph, Mohammed’s son-in-law Ali, ordered a sodomite thrown from the minaret of a mosque. Others he ordered to be stoned.

One of the earliest and most authoritative commentators on the Koran, Ibn ‘Abbas (died 687) blended both approaches into a two-step execution in which “the sodomite should be thrown from the highest building in the town and then stoned.
