This billboard was removed from the SoHo neighborhood of Manhattan soon after it was erected in February of this year. An objector to the billboard harassed workers in a Mexican restaurant below the sign (of which the restaurant had no involvement in the billboard). The general manager for Lamar Advertising claimed that the move to remove the billboard was not politically motivated, but instead was safety related.
This is clearly a case of the philosophy of individualism run amok. Matthew Kelly in his book Rediscovering Catholicism writes that "[the] social and political reforms of our age have exalted the individual in a way that is unhealthy for society as a whole...The rights of the individual have been strengthened at all costs, with no regard for right and wrong, and often to the detriment of the whole." A single man objects to the billboard, harasses restaurant workers and the advertising agency's general manager succumbs to the philosophy of individualism.

Let alone that the African American population in New York City has practically been decimated by abortion. Check out these facts. “Black people in New York and all over the country should be outraged at the numbers of black babies we lose every single day to abortion," said Dr. Alveda King. "An astonishing 60 percent of African-American pregnancies in the five boroughs of New York City end in abortion. That’s unfathomable,” King said.
