Last weekend, lawn signs that voice opposition to Georgetown’s Campus Plan were found burned in front of a Burlieth home.
“Burning of signs in front of someone’s house is not only dangerous but sends a message of intimidation and fear,” Burleith Citizens Association Preisdent Lenore Rubino wrote in an email. “Why else do it?”
The three burned red-and-white signs, which display mottos like “Oppose GU’s Campus Plan” and “Our Homes, Not GU’s Dorms,” were discovered on Monday morning on the front porch of a resident’s home on the 3700 block of T Street.
According to Metropolitan Police Department Director of Communications Gwendolyn Crump, an investigation into the incident is ongoing.
