The difference is they aren’t partisan. Bernie’s deep cult definitely reminds you of Trumps blind followers but, they are 50x more educated and believe in facts and science.

Probably. But they exhibit many of the same moronic attacks on others.

But the person putting it up would have to realize it would turn many people off. You have a right to make your political positions known, and other people have a right to not pay you for services because of it.

The Village codes etc are a different matter.

Yes, and as a businessman he should have a few brain cells dedicated to bringing in customers, not repelling them. His stupidity offends me as well.

Frugal, offended me is so put off, I'd go to the supermarket and buy a half gallon of ice cream for $2.49. Problem solved.

I had a sign business for 16 years and in the 6-8 cities where I did work, all had strictly enforced sign ordinances. One common rule was maximum size based on the square footage of the frontage. Based on the pictures in the link, those banners would have been illegal in those cities. They could, however, apply for a permit to have oversized banners on a temporary basis for a sale or event. Another rule allowed any size inside the windows but in this case they would not be visible.

Yeah, silly exaggeration. Realistically it's more like 48.7x.

Remember the times when people kept their opinions on politics/candidates to themselves and did their own research on someone before voting and stopped trying to change other people's minds and stopped trying to be all "I'm right and you're wrong"?

That was a nice time.
