Dozens of billboards with Muslim themes are sprouting nationwide, proclaiming what organizers say is the true message of Islam and its prophet, Muhammad: peace and justice, not extremism and violent jihad.
The New York-based Islamic Circle of North America has erected 100 new billboards over the summer that feature statements such as: Muhammad believed in peace, social justice, womens rights and Muhammad always taught love, not hate; peace, not violence. Also listed are a website and a phone number people can call for more information.
They are in cities including Boston; New York; Phoenix; San Diego; El Paso and Austin, Texas; Memphis, Tennessee; Cleveland; Las Vegas; Milwaukee; North Bergen, New Jersey; Portland, Oregon; Harrisburg, Pennsylvania; Denver; and Calgary, British Columbia.

freedom of speech allows a rebuttal. I often wondered why billboards aren’t used more.

I think that's one of the torture() subroutines.
void torture()
{
/* lots of mayhem here */
if (female) {
mutilate_genitals();
if (disobedient)
beat_mercilessly();
if (becomes_westernized)
kill();
}
/* lots more mayhem for non-females */
}

I don’t need billboards to tell me what Islam really is, I have headlines for that.

taqiyyah, in Islam, the practice of concealing ones belief and foregoing ordinary religious duties when under threat of death or injury. Lying to non-Muslims in advance for Islam is allowed till Judgment Day Quran 3:28, 16:106
It is fine to deceive the infidels. They are just pigs anyways. In fact, al-Taqiyyah of the Qur'an compels protection of Islam by deception.
