They are intended as free political speech and placed on public property in accordance with rights granted under the First Amendment. The use of public property for the purpose of free political speech (placed in a safe, non-permanent fashion) is open to everyone.

"There is nothing that war has ever achieved that we could not better achieve without it." -Havelock Ellis

"To know what is right and not to do it is the worst cowardice. " -Confucious
