A group of students painted the cannon Sunday night in protest of an editorial that Keith Ablow, an assistant clinical professor at the Tufts School of Medicine, wrote for Fox News stating that children should not be allowed to watch a television show that cast a transgender individual.
Ablow published a Sept. 2 editorial in FoxNews.com's "Opinion" section titled "Don't Let Your Kids Watch Chaz Bono On 'Dancing With the Stars,'" in which he states that parents should not let their children watch the ABC show "Dancing With the Stars," which premiered last night, because Chaz Bono, the transgendered son of Cher and Sonny Bono, appeared on the program.
I don't know why, but for some reason forensic psychiatrist have a huge problem with transgeder and our treatment. I have had one as a team member in a hospitalization and she just didn't get it. She was constantly accusing me of holding them hostage. She was eventually able to yhave me commited for GID. My parents who are Fox news fanatics have told me that they think he is off his rocker. The one good thing about his statements is our allies have had an opportunity to rebut his opinion in the press.

I read Ablow's reasons and queried if he says the same thing regarding violent and sexually suggestive videos and tv programs.
