Woman With F--K Trump Sticker On Truck Arrested: Report
The driver of the truck that F-bombed Trump and his supporters was taken in, but not because of freedom of speech or expression

SUGAR LAND, TX — The woman who made local and national news recently for a sticker on her truck window that expressed her disdain for President Donald Trump and his supporters was arrested Thursday, per a report on KHOU.
The CBS Houston affiliate reported they got the news from the husband of Karen Fonseca, who was apparently brought in for an outstanding warrant stemming back to August. The Fort Bend County Sheriff's Office didn't confirm the arrest as of Thursday afternoon.
Patch reported on a sighting of the truck Wednesday when Fort Bend County Sheriff Troy Nehls posted a photo on Facebook with a message.

The letters on the window spell out:
F[][]K
TRUMP
AND F[][]K YOU FOR VOTING FOR HIM
It doesn't take a Rhodes Scholar to figure out the message. But is it illegal to carry such a message or is it free speech protected by the First Amendment of the United States Constitution? Here's the link to the sheriff's Facebook page.

Sheriff Nehls' Facebook post with the photo had this message: "I have received numerous calls regarding the offensive display on this truck as it is often seen along FM 359. If you know who owns this truck or it is yours, I would like to discuss it with you. Our Prosecutor has informed us she would accept Disorderly Conduct charges regarding it, but I feel we could come to an agreement regarding a modification to it."
The Facebook drew thousands of comments and nearly broke the internet, so Nehls removed the posting. Here's the Patch post on Wednesday that contains some of the responses.
Fonseca's husband said he didn't know the charges behind the arrest warrant, but KHOU reported that records show she was accused of fraud.
Fonseca told reporters Wednesday night that she and her husband have had the sticker for about a year.
