My promise was realized better than I could ever have expected. Eventually we won the lawsuit, which resulted in visual art being given full First Amendment protection, a concept the Mayor seems unable to grasp. His administration is still trying to pass laws aimed at eliminating free speech in general and street artists in particular from the public forum of the streets and parks of this city. That's why we have to keep suing him again and again. It's likely that the ultimate problem Giuliani has with these images is that they are costing him a lot of money in lost campaign donations.
Wealthy people are very careful about who they publicly give money too.
Jewish contributors to Giuliani, even those who don't agree with my ideas at all, are concerned that they might be seen to be helping a man who's commonly referred to as a dictator, a fascist, a racist and a modern-day Hitler. That is why the Post keeps attempting to frighten Rev. Sharpton, the media, elected officials and the general public into distancing themselves from these images. The Mayor's fear of them only serves to prove how right on they actually are. My advice to the Mayor is that if he doesn't want to be compared to Hitler and other repressive dictators he should stop emulating them. Invocations of Adolf Hitler are despicable no matter who it is.
