The artist who won the “draw Mohammed” cartoon contest attacked by terrorists last May in Garland, Texas, said his drawing was removed from eBay Wednesday on a “technicality.”
Bosch Fawstin, a former Muslim, won $12,500 in prize money at the May 3, 2015, event, sponsored by Pamela Geller’s American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI), for a drawing that showed a sword-wielding prophet in a turban shouting, “You can’t draw me.” In reply, a cartoon bubble portrayed the artist as writing, “That’s why I draw you.”
Two terrorists opened fire on officers outside the event before they were fatally shot by police.

Not enough bandwidth like what the MSM says when it edits 911 calls to make the story come out different.
I noticed Mad Mo has a Hitlerequse mustachio.

Ebay owner Pierre Omidyar is a muslim from Iran. The founder of eBay is giving a financial boost to the Never Trump movement, donating $100,000 to an anti-Donald Trump super-PAC. Pierre Omidyar called the donation to NeverTrump PAC “a rare political contribution during extreme times.” The donation was first reported by the Center for Public Integrity. thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/276584-ebay-founder-donates-100k-to-anti-trump-pac
