A billboard-sized advertisement for a gun manufacturer that said "yeah, we carry" has been removed from the concourse of a South Carolina airport. he State newspaper reports Saturday that the Columbia Metropolitan Airport's governing commission decided to take it down after receiving complaints.
Columbia Mayor Steve Benjamin said the ad featuring eight different guns made by firearms manufacturer FN America is "the wrong ad in the wrong place at the wrong time." A different billboard and a video at the escalators promoting FN America will remain.

TO REMEMBER |
| "Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
