129. It should only be held to a "higher standard" if either someone paid for that sign

or were paid to make that sign. Otherwise, it's no different from your average protest signage made by non-professionals. Had this been a sign-shop, well, then I'd have expected it to look as good as any yard-sign. And, I'm not just talking about design-quality, as grammar, spelling, punctuation, and capitalization would all matter in such an instance.

In this case, it's one word, easily ignored as being an "honest mistake", and possibly a dyslexic one. If it was due to dyslexia, would you still be pointing it out as "unprofessional"? Yes, three people may have read over the sign before leaving. Or, one of them (the one that created it) read it to the other two, and then put it up on the bars while the others locked up. We don't know the specifics, nor does it matter; they weren't making a documentary of their actions leading up to the posting of this sign.

Why, indeed, are so many people being so anal about one measly word? You got the point! Leave it at that.
