And the purpose?
“The stark, black-and-white ads of the Subway Project promote Islam with the goals of clearing up long-held misconceptions about the faith and reaching out to those interested in becoming Muslim, according to the Islamic Circle of North America, the group behind the campaign.”
SOLUTION: Boycott the subways now! Flood the local government offices with letters/e-mails and make phone calls to the mayor and local gov. officials. This is scary stuff.
Holee Molee! This is such crazy talk, it’s almost (almost!) hard to believe it’s true. There are still sane people in NYC, some of whom ride the subway and some of whom probably even post on FR. I sincerely hope locals will make a lot of noise. I’m reading that Giuliani may be making a run for Governor in 2010...it makes me wonder what he’d do about crap like this!
Sic the Mormons on them, to compete for the ad space. I hear the Mormons have a ‘gospel restored’ campaign cranking up. Maybe NY can make money off of both religions by selling the ad space at bidding sessions.
