Ms marvel has been around a long time. Marvel recently changed a few characters to different races / sexes. They’ll change them back eventually. It’s just a marketing ploy.

If it's legal to paste over anti-Islam ads, then it's legal to paste this sticker over the paste-overs:

But it’s okay to paint black slashes over anything Jewish or Christian and also to paint hateful slogans over them but don’t you ever dare mock Islam.

Free Speech Isnt a License to Spread Hate.Unless it's hate for Christians - that's not just a right but a sacrament for the Left.

Free Speech — to contemporary liberals — has always meant shouting down opposing viewpoints.

They made the character Arabic. She wears a full body suit akin to the modest swimsuits they wear with a mask around her eyes.
It’s a total PC maneuver meant to soak up money from liberals.

Free Speech Isnt a License to Spread Hate.Yes it is. I will go further to write that hate is a basic human emotion and in someways can be positive. It all depends on how and what you do with your hate. The one thing you don't want to do is leave hate bottled up inside you, that's when things get bad.

DON CHERRY, Canadian Hockey Commentator for CBC Television, was asked on a local live radio talk show what he thought about the allegations of torture of suspected terrorists. His reply prompted his ejection from the studio but to thunderous applause from the audience.
HIS STATEMENT:
"If hooking up one rag head terrorist prisoner's testicles to a car battery to get the truth out of the lying little camel shagger will save just one Canadian or American life, then I have only three things to say: 'Red is positive, black is negative & make sure his nuts are wet."

It’ vandalism and censorship but not anti free-speech in the 1st Amendment context. Only government can violate the 1st Amendment.

I guess that you could have representations of Ms. Marvel that were not flattering to Islam.

I think my first post on FR was a Don Cherry post about his views about 9/11.
The guy is class and always supports the troops.
