" LLDF believes it has found a reason why authorities in Tuscaloosa, Alabama won't prosecute a theft from a pro-life prayer warrior.
Life Legal Defense Foundation attorney Dana Cody tells OneNewsNow the pro-life sign Paul Lake positions near an abortion clinic in the city was stolen, and they know who the culprits are......
(Excerpt) Read more at onenewsnow.com ...
Even though there was a witness to the thievery, after going through various channels, Lake was eventually told the case would not be prosecuted because the sign was taken from city-owned property.
"Interestingly enough, we found out that the city attorney, his name is Christopher England, happens to be friends with the clinic director, Gloria Gray," the LLDF attorney adds. She calls that a "strange coincidence" and wonders,"What if it had been the clinic nurse and her assistant sitting on the sidewalk as clinic escorts and a pro-life person had walked up and taken their sign?"
Cody suggests the thief in that case would have been prosecuted, so she is urging Tuscaloosa pro-lifers to ask the city attorney for the truth about why the theft is not being prosecuted when the evidence is plain...."

Not enough information here. Most cities do prohibit posting of signs on city right of way; if one puts up signs on property of others without permission, that is the person breaking the law, not the person who removes it.
So if someone wants to post the relevant city ordinance, if any, we could have a basis for discussion.
“the sign was taken from city-owned property”
MEN, THAT is why YOU need to be out there.
YOU need to be the visible security, to discourage the intimidation of those Praying and Presenting a POSITIVE Message!
The ugly signs and chants of damnation are NOT effective in changing the mind of the reluctant mother.
I'm guessing in the same way political signs on city right of way are protected these are too
