Slippery slope when it comes to speech. Its one thing buying a lot in a home owners association to regulate it but completely another when it comes to whole communities. Appearance and speech would need to be separated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine them trying to say you can't fly a Packer or Bear flag during the summer. Like I said whether or not it makes sense isn't the point and it just would lead to more of the same which I think is a slippery slope I wouldn't want to see happen.

Gold Member Stephen Hawking Posted August 31, 2020 Gold Member Share Posted August 31, 2020 There is a long strip of road near me that was lined with Joe Kennedy signs, drove by Sat morning and every sign had a big orange X on it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So be it but they are both speech and I'd prefer neither infringed as long as they are not vulgar in nature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Out here they put signs on every major intersection. Old Sheriff Joe was running for office again (lost his primary) and someone went around spray painting swastikas on his signs. I'm no fan of sheriff Joe but that's a tactic of the radical left. Really don't want them in AZ. WI had way too many of them. It's so much nicer out here without the stupid political gamesmanship that's become a constant presence in WI. Neighbor up the street has had a Biden sign out for two months. He's the type who drives around with "Resist" stickers on his vehicles. Nobody bothers him about it and my suburb is very red.
