Anti-American “Art” At Tax-Funded Portland Airport
What an artist spews is his/her business, but this is inappropriate for display in the Portland airport. A public art gallery, maybe, but not the airport.
I agree with Michelle Malkin…
Radio talk show host Lars Larson wants to know if you think it’s appropriate to display this anti-American “art” at the tax-funded Portland Airport:
Christian-bashing? Check.
Anti-gun message? Check.
Anti-war zealotry? Check.
Anti-capitalism symbolism? Check.
American flag mockery? Check.
I agree with Lars: This should not hang in a public space.
Michael Moore’s living room? Nancy Pelosi’s beach house? Fine.
But in a publicly-subsidized airport? No. What’s next: A display of the soldier burnt in effigy in Portland earlier this spring? Or how about the flag that was defecated upon by a Portland peacenik at the anti-war rally?
Contact the Portland airport authorities here.

If this country is about freedom of expression, why is it that only certain views are allowed to be expressed? You can have freedom of speech, but only if you say what we want you to…
This country is full of contradictions. Either live with it or open your eyes to what a large number of your fellow “Americans” have already seen.
How is supporting a mass genocide Christian at all? Well, I guess since you’ve been funding it forever it makes sense. But maybe look at what harm YOU are doing to the world before you start complaining about people’s opinions. Obviously they’ve put a little more thought into all of this than you have.

Freedom of expression has never been the issue. The forum used to express it is. In my opinion, a public airport is not the place for a political message. Unless of course, you are willing to give me equal time, such as allowing me to put up a picture of Jesus. Not likely that’s going to happen.
