Can't sign on for government restricting political advocacy. Period. Full stop.

Yes, seriously. And plenty of people do fly that flag as well as others burn the stars and stripes.

1. You know what those signs and flags mean, and it is political.

2. Who gets to decide which political speech is past the pale? Today Max E is in power and outlaws "Let's Go Brandon" signs on your own private property. First offense a fine, second offence 10 days in jail, third offense ... firing squad? Tomorrow the guy with the "Biden Sucks" flag has the whip hand. What does he outlaw?

You know (or should) that you and I are in general agreement on a lot of things, but when you say, "There ought to be a law ...." you sound a lot like my authoritarian neighbors.
