REGARDING:
“Doug Broxson should be charged with voilating Florida election laws for placing his signs in the public right-of-way….”

Go ahead and charge him. First prove it was HIM who did it, not someone else. We figure he did it. They pointed out there was no PROOF.

Get proof, get a conviction, get HIM to do community service too. Soon all our roadways will be spotless.

David for having the fellows pick up signs
now that it’s legal to do so

A pretty good indicator of the class of people seeking public office. Some of them win.

Signs are illegal if placed in right-of-way. How could Gregory Brown, Jr. and his wife Jennifer be arrested for removing them…. Doug Broxson should be charged with voilating Florida election laws for placing his signs in the public right-of-way….

REGARDING;
“Nice that our squeaky clean newly elected representative who used campaign funds to buy a night vision camera wasn’t charged. ”

Not that I care, but DID he use campaign funds to buy a night vision camera or did he already have one for hunting related activities and just use it for a secondary purpose?

AND

“Where is the alleged ‘land owner’ & why didn’t they remove the signs???? ”

We are told the State of Florida was the actual land owner where the signs were placed, the presumed land owner likely knew where his land lay and didn’t touch what didn’t belong to him. For that matter, it seemed he didn’t care about the signs anyway but supposedly gave permission to remove those placed on his property. Gave permission, didn’t request as in “don’t care if you do, don’t care if you don’t.”

David thinking about getting some signs now

Jane, statutes dictate how stiff penalties can be based in part on the value of the goods at issue. In this case, there have been no penalties yet, just a pretrial offer. Penalties without a guilty verdict or plea are unconstitutional. Now that would be stiff.

Oversight, the delay was to stay out the political process until after the election. Within a week, the state attorney made a decision.

And didn’t Broxson admit on channel 3 that he knew right where those signs were and intended that they be there? Nice that our squeaky clean newly elected representative who used campaign funds to buy a night vision camera wasn’t charged. Can you say “home cooking?”

Disgraceful. They deserve that humiliation. Who would want them in office if they can’t even fight fair?

The fact that this candidate actually thought it would net him more votes by removing the opponents little roadside signs should disqualify him on the basis of being too stupid to hold public office. But, as we all know, an IQ test is not required to be a successful politician.
