Is “God” legal?
Here’s a story for you to contemplate…
Man Signs Voter Registration As ‘God’
READING, Pa. (AP) — One registered Republican won’t be able to vote in the next election unless he appears at a Berks County Elections Board to explain the signature on his registration form.
The man is registered as Paul S. Sewell, but his form is signed “God.”
County Solicitor Alan S. Miller said Sewell claims his “God” signature is merely a legal mark like the “X” used by people who are illiterate.
Sewell, 40, said he will be happy to explain. As the owner of a bail enforcement agency, he finds fugitives, he said.
“Whenever I go to arrest somebody, they say, ‘Oh, God, give me another chance. Oh, God, let me go. I’ll turn myself in tomorrow,’” Sewell said.
He said he thinks his designated mark is legal. “PennDOT accepted it on my driver’s license. I have a credit card with it,” he said. “It shouldn’t be a problem.”
Ok, what DOT is going to say “ok, your signature definately looks like “Paul S. Sewell, not God.” I know people have some screwy signatures, but come on. God? Looks a little different…
I gotta back this guy up!!! What is the difference between a random scribble and
a scribble that says “God”??? if this guy is full of himself this much then I say
let him do it but he shouldn’t get upset when people make smartass remarks.
A signature is pretty much Freedom of Speech… or Art
