St. Charles City Cuts Voice Of Dissent

The city of St. Charles, made famous by it's outlawing of cursing in public bars, is at it again. Within hours of a banner being displayed on a busy pat of I-70, the city removed the banner, and the voice of the people with it.

A banner reading: "FIGHT THE RICH, DON'T VOTE FOR THEM" was dropped today, November 4th, on an overpass in St. Charles, MO. The banner, which measured aproximately 6 ft. x 20 ft., was streched across on overpass just outside of the county's largest voting station. Within thirty yards of the banner, billboards for casinos and gated communities have flown high and intrusive over the much driven freeway, without any disturbance.
