A Hughestown man has the right to express his opinion in any way he seems fit, including the use of a word many deem obscene, two attorneys said.
Joseph Decker, 39, of Parsonage Street, was charged by Hughestown police with disorderly conduct over a sign he placed in the rear window of his Dodge Ram pickup truck.
Decker said he placed the sign that says, “If you’re in America and can’t speak English, get the (expletive) out” after he called his bank and had trouble understanding the call taker a few months ago.

While for many reading this Hughestown might be a world away, but it is under a quarter-of-a-mile from my home. In my window the phone number 1-866 DHS-2ICE is posted, but only because 5 feet away is a day-care. And that word is all I hear since I moved here eight years ago. The other side of my fence is the play area and small parking lot of a day-care/pre-school, and for eight years now that is what I have heard these cute little children yelling (Three year olds to the after-school older kids.) Occasionally when a kid acts out, the parent picking up the child will scream to the kid: get in the phucking car, just get in the phucking car now! I no longer wonder why our education system is a failure. Besides just posting signs which read; Deport and Report, anyone have a suggestion for both problems?
