The National Organization for Marriage (NOM), International Organization for the Family (IOF), and CitizenGO hit the road in what they’re calling their Free Speech Bus. But as made abundantly clear by the bus’ designs, the bus is dedicated less to the topic of free speech and more to the topic of human sexuality.

Per a press release from NOM, the bus tour is dedicated to promoting “‘truth of gender’—’that it is determined by biology rather than by emotions and feelings'” in a way that citizens will not fear “being demeaned, harassed, or threatened with retaliation.”
And now someone has vandalized their bus.
The bus reportedly had its windows smashed and was vandalized with still parked in New York City:

Any prominent LGBT leaders who will come out and publically condemn this? Or is this now acceptable behavior? #FreeSpeechBus #shame pic.twitter.com/1wbNnnhTzL
