How the hell is this possible? Would they allow Catholics to buy these kind of ads aimed toward Jews? Ah, I see it was reviewed but I wish I had the money to test their convictions that this would be okay with any religion. Geller is just a hate monger.
A conservative activist has sparked controversy after running a series of adverts on New York buses offering information to people who want to leave the Islamic faith.
The adverts, entitled Leaving Islam?, points readers to a website called RefugefromIslam.com and will run on at least 30 city buses for a month.
She said: ‘It’s not offensive to Muslims, it’s religious freedom.
‘It’s not targeted at practicing Muslims. It doesn’t say “leave”, it says “leaving” with a question mark.’
Ms Geller said the adverts cost $8,000 (£5,500), which was contributed by the readers of her blog Atlas Shrugs and other websites.
Similar adverts have run on buses in Miami and she said more were planned for other cities.
Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) officials said the adverts were reviewed and did not violate the agency’s guidelines.
Spokesman Kevin Ortiz said: ‘The religion in question would not change the determination that the language in the ad does not violate guidelines.’
