“My First Amendment rights are being stifled — and my due process by taking my sign without citing me first,” Gibson told TheBlaze. “I never received a formal citation, and that’s my gripe.”
“The police officer has no right to take my property, to destroy my property without giving me a receipt or citing me,” he added.
Fire his @$$.
A formal complaint should be filed against this creep and formal charges filed against him for trespass and theft/vandalism at the least. It is past time to push back.
I read another article that stated the city had sent him notice saying the sign was a code violation. There is probably more to the story than “cop steals sign”.
"Put up a “Support Dunkin Doughnuts” sign, and that thing will be protected till the end of time from Jello-Man"
Who is the doughnut-eater in the picture? The chief of police and the mayor need to realize that fat jerk is too stupid to be a police officer and fire him before his coffee cools down.
If the town claims some kind of ownership of the land where he’s been placing the sign, he should file suit for return of a portion of the taxes he’s been paying for years, citing as the basis of his suit the diminished value for his inability to use his property.
This is the PRIME reason cops HATE cameras !! Ha! Ha!
They need to do a test in NY. Put up signs in yards for gay rights and others for the 2A. See which are removed.
Then sue!
Couldn’t be an LEO.
We’ve been told, repeatedly, that only police chiefs (being political appointees) will speak out against the second amendment to please their superiors.
(Seems the problem has trickled downward more than others would prefer that we realize).
