However, something that is also legal (if on public land), I to pull them out & lay them there so they can't be seen driving by.
There was a court case in Illinois (late 80s, IIRC) that called it protected 1A speech.
One can't take the signs, but leaving them there on the ground, therefore useless, is legitimate counter protest.
