โ€œMay I ask who is the dumb a55 that has the home on Main Street in Sanford that has all kinds of bull5hit about the Sanford PD??โ€

That’s the question posed by Laura Utgard on the Sanford, Maine community Facebook page.

โ€œSanford Police Sucksโ€ and โ€œCops Suckโ€ are painted on the house and on a sign in front of it in bright red letters.

A third sign says, โ€œEric Small Bad,โ€ referring to the police chief.

โ€œThe Sanford, Maine Police Department does the best they can with what they have to work with,โ€ Utgard said. โ€œWe need to get together and make Sanford a great place to live again.โ€

Utgard said that if the graffiti isn’t removed she will start a petition drive forcing town officials to crack down.

The anti-cop rhetoric has also attracted critical comments on Reddit.
