Just had a yard sign stolen.

Not mine, but my next door neighbors. They had one that got messed up and I bought them a new one and it showed up yesterday.

I noticed today that it was gone with just one of the metal polls left. My mom and I were going to breakfast before she took the train back home and we saw the rest of the sign half a block down street. I text'd my neighbors and told them what happened. I brought the sign back, and put it back where it was before. But this time I put it right next to their rose bushes. OUCHIE! If they try again.

I have two yard signs in the front yard and a rally sign on the door. I saw some Bernie supporters canvasing our street yesterday and they avoided out house big time. When they saw me outside un-plugging my car, they have me major stink eye.

My message to them and the assholes that took down the sign ... bring it!

I don't care if they have a kkk sign. Destruction of property in America isn't cool.

Smear a bit in the most likely grabbing spots. Won't stop the jerks, but at least you'll know that the person who stole the sign got that icky stuff on their hands.
