Ah yes, the tolerance of intolerance paradox.

It’s merely a function of democracy, and an example of the marketplace of ideas, and how voting is the best form of protest against a candidate or ideology you dislike.

Yes but the marketplace of ideas and freedom of speach also allows me to pick up illegaly placed roadside signs and destroy them. Im not limited to just voting. I can also speak out against this dumbass.

Unless you’re the appointed election official with the jurisdiction to remove illegal signs, I believe that it is a crime to remove them.

Not if they are placed illegaly.

Unless it’s on your private property, it’s not legal to remove or destroy political signs.
