Much as they want to tell him to take it down, members of the Select Board said at their most recent meeting that they won't ask a Hix Bridge Road resident to take down a profanity-laced anti-Biden sign from the front of his home.
"Nobody here likes that sign," select board chairwoman Shana Shufelt said. "We all wish we could tell him to take it down. But I think it would be infringing on their first amendment rights.
The sign, which reads "F*** Biden and F*** Harris and F*** You Too" has been draped over the front door of 442 Hix Bridge Road resident Stuart Davidson's home for weeks.
Members of the select board have received multiple letters from concerned residents who asked the town to intervene and require Davidson to take down the sign.
"We don't believe that we're within our rights to take it down," Shufelt said. "If it was in the roadway, we would remove it."
Nobody answered when a reported knocked on Davidson's door Thursday, and a phone number listed for Davidson did not have voicemail set up.
