Some Repiglican dumbass stole my neighbor's Dem lawn signs last night.

"That's all they've got," I said, when he told me what had happened. "That's their best shot at winning."
"That's for sure," he said. "They don't have much to offer, except dirty tricks."

1. You know it is Halloween

Your neighbor should maybe put some kind of surprise for the sign stealers....just saying...it's Halloween and all....

[smoogatz]

3. Maybe he could wire them to flash grenades.

That'd be kind of fun.

[MadMaddie]

10. He..he...

[slampoet]

2. That used to happen in area near where i grew up.....

Then one day a farmer decided to hook the metal wire that ran through the sign up to his electrical fence.

The thief yelled when he got shocked and the farmer shot him with rock salt.

4. There you go.

That'd probably take care of it. It happens to some extent every election year around here--it's kids following the moral example of the Great Leader.

5. just let the grass grow a bit and a few broken bottles worth of glass

just have to make sure the glass is large enough to go through a shoe.

6. Rubbing Habanero Pepper juice all over the signs might help

Of course, your neighbor should wear latex gloves while he is doing it. It is really, really painful. My boyfriend pickled some last week and forgot to wash his hands. He was in real pain after he peed.

[MadMaddie]

7. Ouch.....painful pee, pee...

I like this idea...

[tandot]

14. The good thing is that he might not know what is wrong and think

he has a STD.

[MadMaddie]

20. Absolutely dasterdly.....I love it..

[Lindacooks]

16. Absolutely. Or poison ivy.

These assholes deserve it.

[nevergiveup]

8. Someone from the Condominium

Association called me today and told me it was in the condo by-laws that no political yard signs were allowed and I would have to take down my John Laesch yard sign. I asked him about all the Bush/Cheney yard signs in 2004 and he just mumbled something. I then asked him if it was OK if I put up a Denny Hastert yard sign and he started getting angry. I told him that this was a democracy and that the by-laws were obviously unconstitutional and hung up.

9. Let him take it to the board.

By the time they meet and decide, the election will be over.

[MadMaddie]

11. Good for you for standing up to the bastards...they are selective

on which rules they enforce.....and who they enforce them with...

[mod mom]

12. globs of thick vasoline works.

[Dr.Phool]

13. I used to have this really thick black grease called crater compound

Coat the edges of the sign with it. It's thick like tar, and doesn't wash off.

I had a realtor, who was stealing my for sale by owner signs, after I fired him.

A couple of signs with that stuff, and they quit disappearing.

[Swamp Rat]

15. I like the black, sticky tar idea

I bet that realtor-thief was cleaning up traces of 'crater compound' for weeks!

[lonestarnot]

17. Tell him to prosecute if they're caught.

[Marr]

18. Put it back up, but this time, rub Vaseline all over it.

I mean, goop it up. You'll ruin their jacket, and that's worth it.

*edit* Ooh, actually - look at Dr. Phool's comment two posts up. That's much better than vaseline.

19. Re pugs stealing signs

[AlCzervik]

21. put crisco all over it.

[originalpckelly]
