Description
Subject: Complaint Regarding Graphic/Disturbing Signage Displayed in Public Park ​To Whom It May Concern, ​I am writing to report an issue regarding graphic and disturbing imagery being displayed at Boston Common on August 2nd, Sunday. ​Demonstrators in the park are displaying signs with explicit, graphic medical imagery. This is a family-friendly public area with many young children present, and visitors—especially children—should not be exposed to such inappropriate and graphic content in a public park space. ​Please find the attached photo showing the signage and the location. I request that the city review whether these displays comply with park guidelines and public decency regulations regarding graphic content in child-friendly public areas. The individuals holding sign also harassing people and families in the park. ​Thank you for your time and prompt attention to this matter. ​Sincerely.
