DART: Controversial Bus Ads Pulled

Officials Say Signs Never Approved In First Place


DES MOINES, Iowa --

Atheist advertising signs on Des Moines Area Regional Transit buses that created a storm of controversy when they first went up on Aug. 1 have been taken down.

Officials with DART said the signs were not supposed to be on the buses in the first place.

Rest of the article. If you're linkphobic, suck it up.

I'm part of IAF. I saw one of the news segments (Ch. 13/NBC, not Ch. 8/CBS). The woman was told DART accepted church ads, why not these. She couldn't answer.

You'd think, with DART being in hot water (with one hitting a pedestrian recently, and some of their drivers having...less than stellar backgrounds) they wouldn't want to open this can of worms.

I didn't know Christians were having their ads taken off of buses.

Even in <small>, you still have a point, c_yo_yus.

Afa_mom, please rent a clue for use during your next comment. If you seriously think you're being oppressed as a Christian living in the United States, go move to Pakistan to gain a little perspective.

Christians are being silenced by liberals, the ACLU and other socialists all the time.

LOL stfd. I see "WHERE WILL YOU GO WHEN YOU DIE? VISIT JESUS.COM" ads all the time around here, and they've been up for months.

Know how what feels, exactly? Being treated like second-class citizens by entitled Christians? We've known how that feels for a long time, thanks.
