Well, the insanity was partially abated in Minnesota. The Minneapolis Star Tribune reports that the bus company takes back stand on ads:
Metro Transit issued a statement Friday expressing regret for its decision to accommodate a Minneapolis bus driver who had asked to drive buses free of gay advertising.No s*** it was the wrong message about tolerance Bob!
...
"In attempting to accommodate a driver's religious beliefs, we inadvertently sent the wrong message about tolerance," read a statement issued Friday by Metro Transit spokesman Bob Gibbons.
The statement went on to say that the bus company would be "reluctant to make similar accommodations in the future."
And Minnesota, what about the rest of the insanity?
