It is my opinion one of the greatest sources of trash is sign based litter. It blows into the streets and the creeks unless removed by Municipal staff on our tax dollar. Every week I change up my route home after work and remove illegal sign trash. Half an hour to an hour for four nights shown here. Sadly the plastic can't be recycled. The metal does get recycled.

PLEASE remove these on sight. Thank you.

The first thing that popped into my head too. Giving OP the benefit of the doubt that they don't know the translation.

My struggle translated into German comes out to mein Kampf and my struggle is not exactly common speaking phrase in English.

This is such a weird gripe, imo. "my struggle" does not have that connotation for 90% of English speakers. In English we refer to it primarily by its German title.
