GOLDEN - Officials are working to remove a gigantic protest sign unveiled this morning in Golden that is visible from downtown Denver.
The American Right To Life Action unveiled a sign on North Table Mountain with dimensions the groups says set a new record for protest signs as measured by the Guinness Book of World Records. The group hopes delegates, journalists and convention-goers will be able to see the sign which reads, "Destroys uNborn Children."
The sign measures 530 feet tall by 666 feet wide, according to the press release. It has the letters D-N-C in huge yellow capitals arranged vertically.
Former Colorado Republican Party chairman and ARTL Action president Steve Curtis said the group began to hike up the mountain at 1 a.m. and finished erecting the sign at 8:30 a.m.
"The protest sign weighs more than 2,700 pounds and was sewed together with more than four miles of seams connecting 2,400 sheets and backpacked onto location and is being unfurled by 44 letter carriers with spotters a mile away to ensure proper letter placement," said Curtis. Curtis did not return repeated phone calls today.

Excellent sign. I hope it stays.
“Destroys uNborn Children”
well.
With BHO’s background - “Destroys borN Children” also!
Well, I think that mere private citizens like these should comply with the orders of the authorities and remove the sign ASAP. And in order to ensure the removal is as thorough and complete as possible, they should use roto-tillers to ensure that no visible signs of the sheets remain when they leave.
I live about a mile away. It was beautiful. It was being torn down about 10:30 a.m. However, they left the “t” for last. If you look at it in “destroy”, it resembled a giant cross. The dumbos probably didn’t see it since they don’t get up before noon. Should be on the news. Right?

If they have to take it down, they should put it back up one day later with a little tweak so they can’t accuse them of disobeying the first order.

Hannity said yesterday that the Trojan corporation also had a giant ‘air condom’ outside the convention hall. Fitting.
