It's Christmas. The elections are over. Most of the yard signs went away quickly but there are still some stalwarts keeping them up, and all of those I have seen are for candidates that lost.
Unless they are being left up in protest of massive voter fraud that stole the election, of course.
/s in case it's needed. Clean up your garbage!
Well, that sign is nothing to fuck with.
Wu-tang is also for the children. Wu Wu Wu!
They are my financial advisors
🤣
yo i got that in my town too!
Always Bob signs, its about owning the libs
I have a Lamont sign and a Jahana Hayes sign still up because for the past five weeks the only times I remember that I need to take them down are when I'm already running late for something.
Well you haven't updated your reddit username since 1984 either, so
User name checks out.
It should be a fucking law. Day after election day? Take it down.
It actually is if I’m correct
If it is, it's probably by town.
If it is it's laughably unconstitutional
In your own yard? Go nuts.
On public property? Restrictions are constitutional. Otherwise we would just see commercial billboards over every inch of public space.
I agree, in fact they really don't belong on public property in the first place
Upvote
The constitution means nothing. It's up to a judge to decide.
And a judge is going to rule that political speech is protected by the first amendment
That and they should limit how many can be put up. It looks so ugly
And you can only put them up for the 30 days beforehand
Yeah fuck the first amendment who needs the right of political speech in a free society
Same thing with your Tag Sale signs. There should be a law that tag sale signs need to have a month and year on them, and you should be fined for each one you leave up more than 5 days after that date.
Nah, show up at the houses at 6am and bang on the door "I hear you're having a yard sale!"
Your blue lives matter flag can go in the garbage too.
I have more issues with the porch lights. I always have a bit of a heart attack when I see blue lights
Yeah I live in Southwest Florida now. You tell somebody to take down their Trump 2020 signs. You're likely to get shot. These people down here are stupid and unstable and should not have access to firearms.
You can't make me take my Eunice Groark '94 sign down
I mean it's a little distasteful considering she died in 2018.
Probably still able to accomplish more than most politicians.
Was just at The White Horse this week, and the home/store next to it had a hugeass trump banner taking up probably half of the front of the house..wtf..
Those people have been shit on socially and (I believe) fined or at least cited multiple times for that ridiculous eyesore. The dude has lost significant business, his wife has been ostracized right along with him, but they’re sticking to their guns for “their president.” It’s gross. And a little funny. And very pathetic.
You can take comfort in the fact that like half or more of their family is actively ignoring them today/tomorrow
Holy crap, how are people taking my wisesass comment as a mythical attempt to subvert their Constitutional Rights? Keep your plastic signs for your losing candidate on your lawn for as long as you want. I find it sad, but this is America; go nuts. Clean them up from public spaces though. If you planted it, it is your responsibility to clean it up.
Welcome to the Qult. Lol. I tried to argue that mentally unstable people shouldn't have access to firearms once. Holy shit did that blow up, I got actual death threats........ From the people that resembled my comment
Looking at you, Boston Post Road.
But how will a bunch of strangers driving by know who I voted for?
Come over to Oxford some of em still have "Trump 2020" signs up lol...uh....it's 2023 almost, but ya, keep at it! I counter them with my "Carter 1980" signs.
This from the town that tried to run a Bull Moose Party without actually realizing the historical failure of the Bull Moose Party 🤣
Look, I’m just going to tell neighborhood kids that Santa is tall.
You spelled "tall" wrong. It's spelled "imaginary".
So triggered. Who pissed in your coffee?
I don't celebrate. I say Merry Christmas. Let kids have their fun.
How about all of the election signs from 2020, can those come down yet? Or is it to soon…?
Spray paint "LOST" on the losers and they'll come down.
Private property, despite the dumb shit people put up.
There was a house in my area that had a big Trump flag up in March
Here’s how Bob can still win
Yeah I agree.
Near where I work there's a Bob Stefanowski sign stuck in the ground right next to a highway onramp. I've been tempted to remove it but there's no safe place to park near there to grab it.
I’m the opposite. Leave all the signs up. Put more if need be. Regardless of political affiliation; if it’s the most interesting thing about you, I know to steer clear.
Blight laws sometimes exist. Unfortunately the only organizations that uphold them are the HOAs.
That's because it's unconstitutional for the government to restrict political speech. HOAs are private organizations the first amendment doesn't apply to them.
Blight laws usually have an element of safety involved (such as conditions that might give rise to an infestation of pests) and are often enforced by the Department of Public Health.
Blight laws don’t deal with signs we find annoying.
Mental health is a thing. The aforementioned sign people must be delusional.
My favorite is the Rob Hotaling sign on Route 68 in Wallingford 🙄
I still have mine up because I keep forgetting about them until I'm already running late for something. I meant to make them down like 5 weeks ago.
Mine were for candidates that won, though. (Lamont and Hayes).
I did my part and ripped one down on January 6th… embarrassing!
There should be a fine per day they are up past the election.
When do we bring inside the random crazy guys holding “Trump won” signs?
There's a Qultist near me that keeps a life-sized Trump cutout in their living room window year 'round. I'm sure they think that they are owning their neighbors.
But how else will we stop the steal?
Sounds like a HOA post or something. It’s a sign dude..

You forgot religious symbols and signs about driving slower because children play in the roads. /s
Road safety signs are okay, but yeah take down the religious ones.
They're all illegally posted, unless the property owner gives them permission. The political ones are generally put up with permission of the property owner and taken down by whoever put them up after the election is over.
This person doesn't know where they stand at all.
Maybe the signs are up so people know they didn't create the crap that has happened.
Is that why this guy still has his trump 2016 poster still up? I never realized!
Maybe.
How maybe is your maybe? Like, magic 8 ball level?
The crap that has happened has been worldwide.
I guess it's too much to expect a conservative to understand that world events affect the US, too.
LOL excellent clip!
When most of the world uses the same money it will be.
Not that difficult to figure out.
Do yourself a HUGE favor and look at inflation around the world. Look at gas prices on the global markets. This isn't a US only problem - we don't have to be using a universal currency for global scarcity to affect us. Every nation has suffered from supply chain issues in the wake of Covid, and every nation has suffered from high gas prices as a result of Russia's invasion of Ukraine (because gas is sold on a global market).
Yeah, not that difficult to figure out, if you're not myopic and actually know something about economics.
Honestly it would take an utter buffoon to not see this - you'd have to be willfully blind or completely incapable of basic causality.
The crap hasn’t happened yet because the new elected candidates aren’t I until January…
It is okay, you didn't understand. I don't have signs and the people who do can do as they want.
Just because you disagree with someone does not mean you can't get along or work together.
Where did it say otherwise? Simply pointing out the fallacy of your logic. The officials elected in November do not begin their terms until January. Thought that was pretty easy…

Well, I'll never recover from such a total online burn. Guess it's time to delete my account. You sure schooled me, kid.
Another deplorable advocating violence.
How can I tell? Obsession with the gentilia of others.
Punch? How about a stern tap?
I’m putting up a trump bill board in my front yard
That would be an invitation for other scams, they'll know how vulnerable you are. Expect a lot of salesmen and churches.
Why not just put up a "I support domestic terrorists" in your yard? Same thing.
That happens on both sides. They just busted an antifa cell in Atlanta and charged them w/terrorism. 5 of them w/explosives. It's not just the far right.
Aaaaannnndddd downvoted!
Hahahaha! The downvotes are because you lie. Both sides!
Nothing more alpha than simping for a politician amirite
Shut up snowflake
You seem awfully offended there, champ. Do I detect some beta male tears?
You must have your head up your own ass
> trump is my daddy and I love my daddy <3
That's sweet, good for you I guess
Fuck your feelings
Enjoy your NFT christmas card!
Do you live in Oxford and have a pet Emu that escaped like two years ago?
That guy has an emu?
That’s what I was told by some of our clients in that area, and from what I saw it’s a pretty tight knit community so I believe them
Yeah that’ll show them snowflakes…..
Oh cool, now I'll know where to test my next idea that needs a gullible, easily conned mark.
