It may be true in some states or something, but I haven't seen any stop signs around here with a sticker. As far as I know in Kansas, a stop sign is a stop sign, regardless of what entity put it there. Driving laws vary quite a bit from state to state, maybe Falco can get out of it! Really though, running stop signs isn't a toy bud.

in Portland, the real stop signs say "COP", meaning city of Portland.
also, FUCK DA POLIS!

This. Every single sign everywhere has the COP stickers on the back.
…and then lots of hipstery things below like HAMMERTIME, BREEDING, OVERPOPULATION, TRUSTING COPS

There seems to be some truth to it. Depending on your area, a stop sign not placed on a public road (e.g. in a private driveway, in the parking lot of a local Walmart, or in a private residential area) may only be advisory and not legally enforceable. I don't know where the sticker bit came from, but I suspect someone is chuckling heartily as this makes its rounds on the Internet.
On the flip side, if you are driving in an unsafe manner, the police will probably be able to find something (unsafe speed, endangerment, reckless driving, or whatever state or local law specifies) to charge you with if they are so inclined. You can't go doing doughnuts in the parking lot of local businesses or residential area and think that you aren't subject to the law just because it isn't a public road.
As near as I can tell, California seems to be of the opinion that any stop sign should probably be obeyed.

Oh Falco, mine is more bullshit than yours. Loud music. Who the fuck enforces that shit? Falco running a stop sign is more dangerous than hearing my music from over 50 feet away...

In Florida the courts ruled loud music tickets unconstitutional. Now if only they can do the same with the drug laws and drinking and driving laws.

If you have the time, contest it and show up in court. If the cop doesn't show (and often they don't), it gets thrown out.

It may be, but if you're from the ghetto parts of California like me, lots of people have 'em. Hell, there's even a lot way louder than mine. Oh well.

Jealous. They should rule that just for you.

That would be immoral; he's clearly guilty.

It's not immoral. If the cop cared that much, he would show up in court. First time getting pulled over Falco? If so, that sucks.

Everybody has the right to a fair trial in a court of law and utilising that right is not immoral. Using logic similar to yours, invoking the fifth amendment is equal to admitting your involvement in a crime, which isn't the case (Slochower v. Board of Education).
