Sheriff Reminds Of Sign Theft

The removal of political signs is not only a crime it can also be considered an act aimed at suppressing free speech in violation of our First Amendment of the United States Constitution. There have been various reports of signs being taken and as election day approaches there will likely be an increase in signs being put out.
