We read:
"Today, the Goldwater Institute filed a legal challenge to the removal of a business advertisement from 50 Phoenix bus shelters in October 2010, claiming the city’s rules are so vague that they allow city officials to violate business owners’ right to free speech.
The Phoenix Public Transit Department says posters for a website operated by TrainMeAz did not comply with city standards for advertising at bus shelters. But city officials cannot explain how the TrainMeAZ ads are substantially different than posters that appear on bus stops throughout the city for other businesses including jewelry stores, fast-food restaurants, and weekend gun shows, said Clint Bolick, the Goldwater Institute’s litigation director.
“Phoenix’s officials can oversee the content of advertising on city property to prevent obscene material or truly inappropriate messages,” Mr. Bolick said. “But the city cannot dismiss ads based on a bureaucratic whim."

The Left never stops trying. Never!
Sure, censoring gun safety ads at a time when concealed carry is becoming more popular is a responsible position of the city attorney who supposedly does his job without political bias. Yeah right, and Obama is a republican.

Without political bias he wouldn't be city attorney!
The strange thing is these lunatics effect surprise that anyone would disagree with them. Their ability to comprehend reality makes Autism look like sociability.
Rotten bus officials I hope they get a lesson on the constitution and a swift kick in their rears

In fact, leftism and political correctness are a repudiation of reality and fact.
