Do you’d be OK with any law enforcement telling you to take an anti-Democrat sticker off?
Wow.
Just Wow.
Do you realize exactly the precedent this would set? Do you think this would only be applied in such places?
This might be the most dangerous and disgusting thing I’ve heard of any government official even talking about in a long while. I can only imagine how the left would apply this, and it ain’t pretty.
That any government entity could even to begin to think they could harass someone over a mere bumper sticker scares the CRAP out of me.
Some things deserve WAY more than a mere ‘knee jerk’.
Drama queen much? You know there is a huge mountain of difference between this F Trump sticker and an anti-Democrat sticker.
Please.
Have we just given up on the “Public Profanity”/”Uttering Profanity” charge? I remember seeing that often in the police docket when I was younger.

Trying to destroy the duly elected president of the USA is beyond free speech. It is an act of subversion.
You really like authoritarianism, eh?
So if enough BLM folks get on their local law enforcement because they don’t like a “racist” bumper sticker it would be OK because “the citizens have demanded action”?
He is not free to have curse words displayed on his truck, sorry nice try but not hypocritical at all.
It is not censorship to call out such nasty behavior against the country and the man who was chosen by the people to lead it for the next four years. What kind of example of respect do you think does no harm to young minds that will be the future of the USA???? Do you approve of this type of behavior being pushed on everyone in our society. Where have our morals gone?

As STUPID as this driver is (I sure as heck wouldn’t be surprised if he gets a good ass-whoopin’) the county is going to learn a very expensive lesson. I can only imagine the lawyers lined up to sue this guy.
Again- I think the driver is an idiot, and probably a hypocrite as I’d BET money they’d be po’d about a similar sentiment expressed towards Obama, but bad move legally; that ordinance is not going to stand in court.
that truck won’t be around very long anyway
this is a self-solving problem
Actions have consequences. Or don’t you believe that? Can’t you see this is all about consequences for that idiot and his F Trump truck? You don’t want the law to take its rightful course of action as that idiot is disturbing the peace? I suppose you don’t want private citizens even disagreeing with his “freedom of speech” either.
Let me guess. That is your truck isn’t it?
There is a thing called “fighting words”. His free speech might not defend him against a good old country style ass whipping.
Thank you for your service, but you didn't shed your blood for a legal State law. The USSC has upheld in the past the right of local government to pass laws restricting public displays of disorderly conduct that include lewd and obscene messages. Some States/locales enforce; some don't as in the cesspools of San Francisco and others. I have read many of the Founding Father's documents and their intent was about freedom of political speech, not that of obscenity.
Why must we put up with the lost of innocence in our children? Why can't they just be children and make up their minds as they grow older? I'll never forget the countless parents having to explain "oral sex" to their youngsters with the Clinton/Monica scandal. If you ever watch "COPS", they arrest people under those ordinances constantly, and they are upheld.
BTW, I'm an ex-Aviation sailor and cuss like a sailor when home or with other men. I never do so in public out of respect, especially for women and children. Why must we keep dumbing down decent courtesy?
Uh, Sheriff. You are wrong...
Watch TV much?
Guy drives a GMC Sierra.
Isn’t that punishment enough?
I see this jerk every so often when I’m driving home on 59.
By this guy, I assume you mean the Sheriff?
If he talked to his DA & they told him they could hit him with a charge, then I suspect these lawyers are the ones wasting their money.
