What are the laws about yard signs?

[EileenFB]

A neighbor had three Hillary signs in her yard. A Trump supporter neighbor told her that the law only allows one sign, and he was going to call the police.

My neighbor is scared and took all the signs down. Is there such a law? I'm in Ohio btw

1. There is no law about signs

Unless you have a homeowner's association contract that puts dumbass restrictions on your property.

Tell her to put the signs back up, although personally I find more than one obnoxious (unless your house has two different streets where the yard is visible). But for that guy.....put more out!

5. I've tried to tell her that

Looks like I'm going to have to call a friend who is a police officer and have him tell her personally.

Her Trump neighbor has one Trump sign and another sign that says Lock her up!! He knows that lady is timid and he bullied her into removing them.

6. Wish I was there to help

I'm looking for a fight.

9. I'm almost at that point

The Trump supporter knew the one to pick on. He's outnumbered on our street (around 30 homes) with 23 neighbors (including me) who have Hillary signs.

11. LOL

He must be losing it!

Well, then, I'm not too worried....

12. With all due respect, never ever do this.

"Looks like I'm going to have to call a friend who is a police officer and have him tell her personally."

Especially to a neighbor you are defining as "timid".

Thanks.

15. He'll be out of uniform

She knows him. Hoping he can assure her that its ok.

16. "She knows him."

19. Boy do I wish I lived on that block...they would not be bullying this woman I can

guarantee you that. I would love to call these assholes and pretend I'm a neighbor who witnessed this and who lives on the next block. Let me know if you want that to happen.

[EileenFB]

20. I sure will

Word has gone around the neighborhood. Two couples put more Hillary signs in their yard...lol

If I can get this camera to work, I'll post some pictures

2. The neighbor didn't leave the one sign for now? What county?

[EileenFB]

3. Montgomery (eom)

17. Please show her this ordinance and I also called to confirm and the wonderful

gentleman confirmed that you can have as many signs as you want and long as it's far enough away from the road etc.

18. Wonderful

4. No law.

[EileenFB]

7. Thats what I thought (eom)

[liberal N proud]

8. Total pile of Trump shit

Look at the Trumpers, they all have 2 or more, never just one.

10. Local ordinances determine that.

And vary significantly from place to place. Size of the sign is a common regulation.

That Trump supporter is trying to intimidate your neighbor. It's unfortunate that it worked. She could check with the police herself.

13. Trump supporter lie. Its the law. Their lying I mean. They have no choice.

[SouthernProgressive]

14. They are as authoritarian as it gets.

That really is a staple of the Trump supporter.

[Adrahil]

21. I HOA does not allow them at all....

But outside of that, I would think only zoning regulations would apply.

A redneck down the road from me has a Trump shrine in his yard. It's weird.
