8. I fear they may not be long for this world.

Well, "fear" is a bit strong.

10. Obvious troll is obvious. It won't be long

I was commenting about the irony of violating the rule about interfering with forum moderation, but here we are.

3. It's not clear whose sign it was

The first amendment first not give you the right to post signs on public (or someone else's) property. Just because you can say it doesn't mean you can take over someone else's property to say it.

That said, It would be up to the property owner, or real police, on public property, to remove it.

9. Wouldn't ICE only have the right to remove it, if it was on their property?

It looks like it might be on private property. (My eyes are bad right now)
Possibly a city park?

Is this even in DC? Sign says Mount Pleasant.

12. ICE is part of the federal government.

So maybe they could remove it from property owned by the federal government. But they have no more authority to remove it from private property (without the consent of the owner) than anyone else has to put it there in the first place (without the consent of the owner).

11. If found out the sign (via google lens) was placed on a DC public park: Lamont Park

LOL...Street view shows the sign. That's hilarious!
