ORIGINAL: BlueEyedSubinDE So the posting on info war's website was 100% factual and had no bias whatsoever. Yes, you are so right, how dare the evil empire of Delaware have a problem with a large sign. Yes, by the picture on infowar's website, it is a large sign. How dare the evil empire of Delaware actually enforce one of it's law's. How dare the evil empire of Delaware actually have a slight concern for safety. Because I'm sure given the size and shape of that sign and the proximity to the road, there was absolutely no chance of that sign coming loose and shifting, and possibly causing an accident. Nope, I'm sure that sign was put up with the utmost of care and consideration. No wait, I'm sorry, I can't keep lying forever, yes it's true, I know. I live here. Every night flocks of black helicopters take flight regardless of the weather armed with their search lights carefully examining each and every utility pole. First it's a warning, next it's a fine, 3rd offense? No one knows, the guilty party is taken away never to be seen or heard from again. For the record, check your respective state law's - most likely you have the same or at least a very similar law on your books. As for me, I prefer to drive on roads without unnecessary hazards. And by that picture, that is exactly what it looks like to me. As for what I think as a resident of this state? No Delaware did not step over it's limit. I don't care if I paid for that utility pole with my tax dollars or not, it's not a free sign post, it's a pole used to keep power lines off the road. This is not a violation of someone's free speech, it's a piece of shit sign tacked up poorly that could actually cause an accident. I swear some people just want to spend their days pissed off. You are aware that you're missing the entire point of the OP, right? The point is, from the information that we've been shown, nobody at infowar had any connection with this sign - other than to inspire the poster. Remember that - no connection to infowars at all. Again, to the best of our knowledge, the DE road crews or whoever does such things saw the sign, knew it was illegal to hang it, and took it down, then whoever's in charge of such things looked at the sign, which only consisted of the site url, did some basic research on the site and came up with the owner's name and address, and decided that he was at fault, as obviously he or one of his agents had put up the sign. They basically wrote him a ticket on it. Since the guy at infowars did nothing with respect to this pole, why does he have to pay the penalty (even if the penalty is, as in this case, a conviction to deal with in future cases), instead of the people that actually made and put up the sign? I have to agree, either really sloppy work by LE agencies, or a horribly written law that needs to be tested and thrown out. Correct. Using this same premise- a "collarme.com" sign on that same poll- then the owner of this site gets a right up- and a threat. Even tho- the owner does not live in Delaware. Expecting anyone who has anything to do with this site- and it hinges on a warrant for the arrest of the owner of the site and not the dude who physically put up the sign.... People could use this "law" simply to be malicious. - someone who hates Rush Libugh- could put up his site - in an effort to get him wrote up. I can only be responsible for my actions- not for anyone who ever looked at my website/post. Even if you hate Alex, his show- etc- it is the point that it could be anyone who gets nailed for something like this. Knowing how polarized the elections are lately- if DE doesnt fix this- I am guessing there will be more off it- simply to harass others.
