California authorities take down giant ‘TRUMP’ sign near highway… that was on private property

Today brings with it yet another “the First Amendment can be suspended in the name of ‘safety'” story, and it might not surprise you to know that it has something to do with California authorities removing a “TRUMP” sign:

Maybe the Trump supporter should have instead put the sign ON the highway and called it a protest:

Local authorities said that because the sign was on private property, it was just taken down but not removed:

Lauren Wonder, chief public information officer for Caltrans, told the Los Angeles Times that the sign was on private property.

For that reason, Wonder said, Caltrans workers “laid it down so it wasn’t a visual distraction” but did not completely remove the sign, which was noticed at about 7 a.m.

“This was a life and safety issue because there were concerns about distracted driving,” Wonder said.

File for a restraining order against Caltrans and it’s employees. Post no trespassing signs, put in a video recording system and then put the sign back up.

Wait for it to be taken down again and win the lawsuit lottery.

“In California the government can do whatever it wants. The people there seem to like it that way.”

That is the truth of it.

I’m guessing they were afraid it would”trigger” some Biden supporters driving down the road and cause some road rage accidents, more then the sign being a detraction to drivers.

In my neck of the woods, we have the Tacoma Dome right next to the I-5 freeway. In that section of the freeway, the traffic is always congested because people want to look at it as they pass by. In that same area, the Emerald Queen Casino has a big digital screen showing the latest acts featured at the casino.

Time to dust off the 1867-68 Reconstruction Act.

It begins with declaring the state in insurrection and sending in a military governor and troops.

Step two is throwing all state congressional representatives out of the US Congress.
