Too bad that man didn't get to see justice serviced. Town of Cary sucks...

FYI, you can go outside in Cary in your PJs, no law against that. The only thing preventing you is you own self confidence. I grill on the back porch in my boxers sometimes. I have a Jeep in the side yard and several cars in the driveway. I can put up my own signs so long as they conform to the regs. I can even fly the flag if I want. So Cary isn't as bad as you play it up to be. GravyPig January 22, 2013 4:37 p.m.

You made my point for me. Where I live we DO NOT have to comply or conform to City Regulations.

Let the ACLU pay the fees.

This is a State issue. The feds shouldn't have have been in on in to begin with. What has happened to States Rights. The feds are taking everything away from the States.

So how much did this appeal cost Cary residents? Just like Cary to save face and spit on a deceased man.

Well said NCCaniac.

Cary, yankee laws for Yankees.

Everyone who is saying Cary is unfair here...stop and think about they have to respect the rights of not only this homeonwer, but all the other homeowners. If you were a neighbor to this person who spray paints a protest sign on his house, what does that do to YOUR property values? What about your rights? The town was trying to balance his right to free speech with the rights of his neighbors, plus the safety issues it caused on the road with people gawking at the sign. He had the right to make his point by posting a sign that was allowed. He chose not to do so.

With the way political discourse has gone in our country where people cannot discuss things calmly with each other, I am glad Cary has regulations on signs so that my neighbor can't decide to put a large billboard right next to my property.

all i can say is the neighboorhood where that house is looks pretty good today and someone made some fast cash on using their head and flipping the house.

Cary can put up an ugly green road information sign that usually has nothing on it but takes action against a homeowner. Cary is a good town but its laws are a bit draconian. I like how the attorney takes the court's ruling that the 1st amendment rights were not violated and makes a statement about fair and balanced treatment. She has been watching too much Fox News.
