Reply to comment by KITTYONFYRE in So when do you expect Malloy to deploy his picking up litter skills? And Rohan can come get his crap. This is opposite my house I don’t want to see this little anymore. by Rincewindisahero

Not allowing commercial advertisement on a rented billboard is entirely different than not allowing individual political discourse on private property

I think this conversation was revolving around the placement of these signs on public property. Nobody really cares if someone leaves their Malloy signs up in their front lawn, it's the fact they're strewn up and down the roadways.

by that logic, why can't i individually have a sign for myself as a baker on my private property?

Because you're advertising a business, which is trade meaning the government has the right to regulate that. They do not have the right to regulate your speech in terms of expressing political or other opinions

Fine, want to go put out your own political signs? Go for it. Want to hire a business to do so? Or pay someone to do so? Not allowed

I dunno. You're making sense, and I'm just barfing onto my keyboard. I haven't put a ton of thought into this exactly, but there should be some sort of restriction on this stuff. It's just such a waste.
