In article <v1u6on$3o2h8$2@dont-email.me>,Hey, maybe you didn't know this but sometimes the government does shit and has to be told by a court of law that it's forbidden from doing such a thing. That's how jurisprudence works in this country. What an anonyshit asshole says about it doesn't have a whole hell of a lot of legal bearing on this situation.

I didn't see anything in the article explaining WHY he had to have a
fence around his boat. Is this a case of "Because we said so!" or is
there a sensible reason for the policy?

As for the fence he built, it's brilliant! We should all do that when
faced with unjust laws and rules: either fight them (if we can) or mock
them.
A mural of a boat is likely less of an eyesore than an actual boat. And
if somehow it weren't, it probably runs afoul of other community codes.
But community codes are subordinate to the 1st Amendment. A boat isn't
speech but a mural of a boat *is* speech and community codes will have
to do a lot of heavy lifting to overcome the law's heavy presumption in
favor of protecting speech.
In this instance, the mural would seem to be "speech" only to the extent
that it argues against the ordinance it's responding to.
government isn't allowed to restrict speech based on content or the
speaker's message.
