IN A CITY with a real-life gun problem, ads glorifying gun violence to sell movies can be particularly sickening. So we’re glad to report that some in City Hall are taking it personally and saying, “Enough is enough.”

Billboards and SEPTA bus ads for the movie “Hitman” went up a few weeks ago. They show a man pointing a gun, with a nearly naked woman draped over him.

…

The mayor made some calls, asking that the billboards be taken down. SEPTA says the contracts were up anyway. But the billboard company, Clear Channel Outdoor, says it started taking them down before the contracts were up. It naturally doesn’t want to broadcast this, since its business is keeping advertisers happy.

Philly’s been a sh*thole since long before this bad movie based on an even worse video game was conceived, and will be long after…
