well that's not really pointing out a NH law unless you want to source one. Its a completely off the deep hyperbolic statement. State and town laws can be more restrictive than the US or State constitution but they cannot be in violation of it, and as dumb as the people trying to take down this sign are, they're within regulation to do so. The people in the town should change that.

No, in theory, towns aren't allowed to have laws more restrictive than the US or State constitution. That's why no state or city can pass sundown ordinances in modern times. Agree that the town should change the law (or lose the court case).

they can be more restrictive but not in violation of. FFS you and the sundown laws..

You can prohibit the sale of alcohol in a county or town. That's more restrictive but not in violation of the fucking constitution. What do you not understand? A permanent sign on a business is not protected via the first amendment or the constitution. Good lord.
