NEW YORK---An anti-Islam activist has won a preliminary round in her First Amendment fight to place New York City bus ads calling enemies of Israel "savages." Federal Judge Paul Engelmayer in Manhattan says he agrees with blogger Pamela Geller. He says the Metropolitan Transportation Authority should not have rejected Geller's ad. Geller is the executive director of the American Freedom Defense Initiative. She publishes a blog called Atlas Shrugged that warns of growing "Islamization." The MTA rejected the group's bus ad.

I wonder if the rules would be the same if the "savages" were Blacks or Gays? Is the real justification for freedom speech that these are muslims?
I've had a week to reconsider my reaction to this, and it only makes me even sadder.
