City Requires $50 Deposit To Put Political Sign In Yard

http://www.wftv.com/news/13996161/detail.html

The city of Clermont has decided to enforce an old code aimed at keeping medians and yards clear of clutter during the election season, but one man says that law is simply un-American.

The presidential election is still over a year away, but one Clermont resident is getting a jump on the competition, already putting signs in his yard supporting his candidate of choice, but that support is coming at a cost.

Bryan Orr was the first to find out that the city of Clermont has recently started enforcing an old code concerning political signage.

"You can't regulate political free speech," Orr said.

That code, which applies only to political signs and not other signs, has been on the books since 1980. Orr's beef is simple.

"You can't say political content has to be regulated, but other types of content aren't regulated," he said.

my state is SO FRICKING

Do they really want the publicity and expense of a trial?

Do they really want the reputation for being clueless?

Are they really that dumb?

Has nobody in office ever heard of the Constitution?

Look at where it originated.

Oh, Amerika is going backwards fast. In one key way, for African-American, it's pre-Civil War.

Black votes and voters are now so frequently dienfranchised by non-violent means (how nice for t hem, that's progress eh?) that they are back to counting as 6/10ths of a White Vote.

The whole thing is enough to make the Stature of Liberty weep.
