[B]Fiddy Billboards Removed

The billboards--which depict Fiddy gripping a gun in his left hand and a microphone in his right--immediately prompted an outcry from civil rights activists, politicians and parents, who felt the positioning of the signs in gang-infested areas was irresponsible.

"This billboard conveys to the students a disturbing message actively promoting gun violence, criminal behavior and gang affiliation," Los Angeles County Supervisor Mike Antonovich wrote to Paramount studio boss Brad Grey. "Placement of the billboard in this location at this time is an insensitive and reckless affront to the parents, school administrators and students seeking to improve their community."
...so tell me again in which neighborhoods posting these billboards is responsible and ok to do?
