The record reveals a myriad of other nontransit activity in the stations that further weakens the justification for the leafletting ban.
See Grayned v. Rockford, 408 U.S. 104, 116, 92 S.Ct. 2294, 2303, 33 L.Ed.2d 222 (1972) (holding that crux of time, place, and manner analysis is “whether the manner of [banned] expression is basically incompatible with the normal activity of a particular place at a particular time”). Passengers bring in paper and food items for immediate consumption. Vendors, including wandering newspaper hawkers, sell newspapers, magazines, food, and drink within the stations. Businesses leave promotional flyers unattended. Musicians set up portable stations to perform, sell tapes, and solicit contributions. The MBTA deliberately has invited into the subway system a range of expressive activities that can produce problems similar to those it attributes to leafletting.
The condoned presence of these activities indicates that the subway system can accommodate peaceful leafletting.
See ISKCON, 505 U.S. at –––– – ––––, 112 S.Ct. at 2713–14 (O'Connor, J., concurring) (striking down ban on leafletting where activity reasonably is compatible with “shopping mall” environment of airport). We thus affirm the district court's conclusion that litter does not justify the complete ban on leafletting.
