Islam is RIGHT About Women’ flyers spark concern in Winchester
WHDH ^

WINCHESTER, MASS. (WHDH) - Residents in Winchester are debating free speech versus hate speech after flyers reading “Islam is RIGHT About Women” were found plastered around town.

Anita Davison told 7NEWS that she was walking her child to school on Wednesday when saw the concerning flyers struck to street signs near the town’s center.

Davison says she was alarmed by the sight of the flyers and immediately ripped them down.

“Political climate at the moment, and all the things happening around the world, it just puts a little fear in you,” she said.

After Davison brought two flyers to the Winchester Police Department, officers went out and found eight more, including one that was posted outside of an elementary school.

Some residents say they think the signs refer to strict laws applied to women.

“Putting signs up that make people feel uncomfortable is unfortunate, particularly in this time and age,” Jim Leary said.

Police say the signs were not threatening and considered free speech. They opted to get rid of them because they were placed on town property.

Davison hopes others will do as she did if more signs pop up.

“Most people have been supportive of the decision to take them down,” she said. “Others have said that I’m not for free speech but I really am. I just feel like that was on the side of hate speech.”

No one has come forward to explain the meaning behind the message.

I'd like to ask her, "Fear of what? Fear of who? And why?" I wonder if she even knows.

I wonder if he could explain why he considers it hate speech?

I was thinking the same thing.

Islam is right about Infidels

If I were more of a rabble rouser, I’d get some t-shirts printed. On the front I’d put Islam is Right about Women. On the back I’d put Islam is Wrong about Women.

Then wait for a snowflake to complain about whichever side offends them, turn around and show how the opposite is just as offensive.

Then watch as their heads figuratively explode.

I see she is not tolerant of others views for her to rip the posters down and then go to the police station.
Saying that Islam is not right about women.

Flyers clearly, to me, were placed by moslems trying to stir up trouble... Maybe it has back-fired... Thanks to all the publicity, Americans understand how bad things are in 3rd world foreign countries like MA...

Nah, I would bet the person who did this wears a MAGA hat.

It is meant to troll woke feminists and other SJWs.

Yes this is exactly a trolling move. And I like it.

The Left today is basically a hierarchy of victim groups. And Muslims occupy the top spot. The message of the sign points this out and dares the Left to say otherwise.

Lol. Yes, women love a serial killer’s religion. The love letters to terrorists prove it, that good amount of women cannot be trusted
