It’s great that we all have the ability to practice the right of freedom of speech.Thank You,first amendment. But things get a little sticky when certain people (Pamela Geller) think it’s okay to be racist.The blogger along with the American Freedom Defense Initiative a pro-Israel group sued the MTA last year for not allowing them to use discriminatory signs on buses.The MTA felt it would create violence but Geller is back at it again.A year later Judge John G.Koeltl has approved the ads.

“While the court is sensitive to the MTA’s security concerns, the defendants have not presented any objective evidence that the Killing Jews advertisement would be likely to incite imminent violence”,wrote Judge John G. Koeltl to justify his decision.

These racist ads will be posted on 100 New York City buses and 2 subway entrances.The ads will read “Killing Jews Is Worship and Will Bring us Closer to Allah” and “It’s Not Islamophobia It’s Islamorealism”. The courts did block an ad that read “Killing Jews”. The campaign will cost the American Freedom Defense Initiative $100,000.The anti-islam ads will be posted at the subway entrance on E.59th St. and the Columbus Circle Station.
