Bloomberg says Muslim ad is protected by First Amendment - chairman - 09-21-2012
As "despicable" as it might be, a subway ad that depicts Muslims in a critical light is protected by the First Amendment, Mayor Bloomberg declared today.
"America is different," the mayor said on his weekly WOR radio show.
"We tolerate things that we may find despicable because the belief is the First Amendment protects you and me and we have to protect everyone else who's going to have that freedom."
The MTA tried to block the ad placed by conservative blogger Pamela Geller, but she won a federal lawsuit forcing the agency to display the provocative material in 10 stations next week.

I bet that Zionist cunt Bloomberg would sing a different tune had someone made an ad deemed Anti-Semitic.
