The Tampa Bay Business Journal's Michael Hinman has an interesting breaking story about a Temple Terrace business that has asked the state attorney to look into allegations that City Councilwoman Linda Shattles threatened it for allowing her opponent's signs on  business property.

Workers at a salon say Shattles told them their "retail center had posted the 'wrong political signs' in front of the

building and that she would organize a 'boycott of Salon One and other

merchants in the shopping center.'"

Whatever happened to just stealing your opponent's signs?
