Shea Van Hoy jeers candidate campaign sign street spam.

It's time again for Cheer & Jeers at the extended local newspaper, and Shea Van Hoy is having a justifably violent allergic reaction to street spam. He might have mentioned the name of the sole candidate to reject such pollution: Me.


JEERS

... to politicians or their supporters who litter public property with campaign signs.

Most municipalities have laws against this sort of thing, laws that are regularly ignored by fly-by-night businesses. I can understand that to a point — they are just trying to turn a quick buck.

But those in elected office — or who want to be — are held to a higher standard, so breaking the laws others have made is a double-negative.

All the signs in places they shouldn’t be are a sore sight for the eyes.
