"So we don't want y'all to think we're all freaks and sex focused - so we're removing these signs that discouraged freaky and sex focused activity".
Hey...so.. um said:
Really weird that the signs were only for midnight to 6am. I'm guessing it was more for prostitution than the gay bar but I could be wrong. Really weird for anyone to so consumed with getting a traffic sign removed. Mental illness symptom right there. They need Jesus.

According to the story, the signs were offensive not because they are intrinsically offensive, but because in days past they were erected to deter people from frequenting a gay bar and (probably) soliciting.

In other words, the signs interfere with the gay pastime of "cruising" (sexual solicitation). Whether or not they were actually posted specifically to ward off gay people is not confirmed, but the simple act of obstructing LGBT people from doing whatever they want to do is now considered "homophobia" by progressives.
"For me, growing up in South Central Los Angeles, cruising had a very different meaning. It usually meant folks in their lowriders or their cars, a lot of hip-hop music, just going up down Crenshaw Boulevard," Council member Soto-Martinez said. "But here in Silver Lake, cruising, of course, meant something very different. It meant an opportunity for the LGBT community to try to find human connection and intimacy and to be able to express themselves in a society at the time that was not very welcoming to the LGBT community."

Why have speed limits?agent-maroon said:
What if the signs were placed in these locations to mitigate a dangerous traffic maneuver and they didn't have anything to do with social justice issues at all?
Crazy thought, right?
