[MD] Lothian man gets to keep Trump sign on roof

With Maryland's presidential primary looming Tuesday, a Lothian man will get to keep a homemade "Trump" sign on the roof of his barn — winning out over objections last month from county zoning inspectors.

Anne Arundel County warned David Riggs, a 49-year-old entrepreneur, that it was against county ordinances to have a sign on the roof of his barn. But the county has rescinded that citation, saying the county sign ordinances need to be reviewed in light of a recent Supreme Court case ruling.

Riggs' sign is 8 feet by 4 feet and white with Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump's name in big block red letters. The sign is held together by a wooden frame on the top of an old tobacco barn. The county said the sign needed to come down for safety reasons.

My God, that sign looks so unsafe. Can't we get a government bureaucrat to do something about it? What if it hit a child?
