Defend Decency
No one should be forcefully subjected to graphic or indecent images displayed in public spaces. Instead, we should support positive, uplifting and wholesome art that promotes American ideals and is in line with Christian values.
Why should I have to look at this?
You shouldn’t. You have a right to not be subjected to obscenities on television and radio. Public spaces should have the same protections in place. If it raises questions too uncomfortable or inappropriate to explain to a five year old, it should not be prominently displayed in a public space.
Become a Defender of Decency
Stand up for morality and take action in your community. If you have seen offensive art or inappropriate displays in public places, you can take steps to have it removed and make a difference in your community.
Community Resources
Stand up for Christian values and protect public spaces in your community. To help make it easier to get started, we have provided a few resources. These are generic materials designed to help launch efforts within your local community. Downloadable letters and petitions are provided for you to customize and tailor to your community.
Write a Letter
Contacting the property owner where the inappropriate material is being displayed is the bast place to start. Clearly communicating and explaining your concerns may be enough for the owner to remove the offensive material.
Sample Petition
If a letter does not do the job, get your community involved. Create a petition on Change.org and invite friends and neighbors to sign. Be sure to include details that speak to your community and clearly explain the concerns and reasons the material should be removed.
Do As Christ Would Do
While we are eager to see obscenities and vulgarity removed from public spaces in communities across the country, we do not support or condone the destruction or defacement of any building, sculpture or display. Instead, we call on our neighbors take action the way Christ would. Let our actions speak as loud as our words. When we work as a united community, we can remove indecent displays the right way and promote wholesome, moral art.
