DC Metro Suspends All Political Issue Ads, Rather than Run Pam Geller's Mohammad Ad

They have to be viewpoint-neutral in decision-making. They can't just not run her ad because they don't like it. So, they've decided to "neutrally" ban all issue ads.

Question: How on earth is this "neutral"? Philadelphia did the exact same thing. The decision to accept issue ads at all isa neutral one when they accept issue ads

This doesn't even have the superficial look of a "viewpoint-neutral" decision. They have decided against issue ads, all of them,

She should re-sue, and force them to accept issue ads again, including hers -- or else at least they should be forced to demonstrate that they were already planning on rejecting all issue adsof Geller's offer.

If this decision was made due to Geller's proposed ad-buy, then the decision is not viewpoint-neutral.

As Allah points out, at least the DC Metro is admitting why they're not running the ad.

I just love how immigration-without-assimilation is transforming America.

It's becoming such a better place, don't you think?
