He just parked on the street in his golf cart-of-signs. The judge awarded the woman a restraining order against him - for exercising HIS right to free speech.
He harassed her, in person, at her local rec center, then followed her home...

You have no "right" to do that... We have anti-stalking laws for a reason...
