Billboard hearing held

(NewsNM - Swickard) We only have real first amendment rights when what is written or said causes people to scream. Is the billboard covered by the First Amendment? We shall see.
From the Alamogordo Daily News - For now, Greg A. Fultz's anti-abortion billboard will remain posted on White Sands Boulevard. That could change if 12th Judicial District Judge James W. Counts signs a recommendation forcing Fultz to remove it. Fultz was verbally ordered to remove the sign before Friday's hearing by the Domestic Violence Court Commissioner Darrell N. Brantley on June 1.

The billboard first came under fire when a Right to Life New Mexico representative said they asked Fultz to remove their endorsement of the billboard prior to it being displayed on Alamogordo's main thoroughfare. The billboard depicts an Alamogordo businessman, GEFNET owner Fultz, 35, holding what appears to be the outline of a baby in his arms as he is looking down at it. Next to the picture, in large print, is the statement, "This Would Have Been A Picture Of My 2-month Old Baby If The Mother Had Decided To Not KILL Our Child!" The billboard has drawn national attention. Read more
