"Bus-shelter ads on gun safety shot down by city"

This one has me spun up, not just for the issue but for a political agenda one of the idiots involves suggests in the undercurrent of their comment (see my Comment below).

Bus-shelter ads on gun safety shot down by city, Phoenix took aim this week at an advertising campaign launched by a coalition of local businesses and groups, ordering the signs to be stripped immediately from 50 bus shelters across the city.

As a veteran, I find this insulting. Plus, it suggests a certain Leftist-Socialist mentality on the idiot's part:

In reference to an ad for a VA service to veterans being considered "commercial," while this ad not being commercial, the one idiot says, "We consider that a commercial ad and here's why: Veterans are employees of the Veterans Administration, and we do allow employee-type ads up like recruitment etc... This is a benefit package to them which is a compensation for their work. There's no statement about it. They are promoting a compensation."

I am NOT an "employee" of the Department of Veterans Affairs. The crazy broad is blurring the private sector (me and others) with the public sector (government workers). This shows the effectiveness of Leftist programming in society.
