Hmm, Didn't see that, sorry.
Well then mine applies to the billboard then, is it right for a government agency to say they can't have them up, even though they paid for them? What are the limits of free speech in this? Should they have screened them earlier? Why did it take 10 days for some to be bother by their website?

I've changed the title to reflect the subject of this thread — not the claim that the world will end on 5/21 but the removal of the ads. If you want to talk about the clain itself, please use the other thread.
Thank you.

Is that cake frosting?
Eh, they should have let them embarrass themselves if they really wanted so hard to. Plus, you know, free speech applies.
Although, I must say, if all the badass, near-incomprehensible symbolism about the end times mentioned in Revelation end up amounting just to gay marriage being passed, I'll be really disappointed...
I mean, come on. Where is my ocean turning to blood?
But they seem to know where they are going, the ones who walk away from Omelas.

So long as the website got its money back, I don't have a problem with this.

The idea of the world's end is retarded and so are those people but free speech still applies. If they got their money back then it's OK (no-one should be forced to do business with them). If it goes any further (like closing of the radio), it won't be OK though

To be fair, they were annoying ads. Sometimes, fundementalists need to stop making up things and tolerate the world around them.

NOT THE BEES
As long as it's the ad companies that are removing it and not some outside force, there's no problem. Their business.

I'm sure some of you have heard about this second coming of a god.
I read this in the paper while I was out today it's a local story but I think tropers could weigh in on it: http://bostinnovation.com/2011/05/10/mbta-to-remove-ad-campaign-of-homophobic-website/
How do you feel about the billboards being removed tropers?
