I pulled into my driveway this evening from work and noticed that my New Bush/Cheney yard sign was pulled out of the ground and thrown into my front landscaping. I immediately knew who the culprit was and I was actually a little amused because I fully expected it. He just walked by the house but I did not confront him because he had his 7 year old daughter with him (and I'm a Nice guy) so I just said "Hello" as he walked back and I put the sign back into the ground. I plan to confront him later this evening as he always takes a stroll through our neighborhood alone at about 9:00 P.M. (my other neighbor said that she saw him throwing the sign into my bushes) I plan to voice my displeasure with his action and the malicious nature that most liberals express when it comes to a losing battle. I'm planning to invite him to sit down with a beer and discuss our differences but be very direct that I will not tolerate some hippy dildo fucking around with my property. Any advice you can give would be appreciated and I'll update...
OH GOODY, HE JUST WALKED OUTSIDE......I'LL BE RIGHT BACK. |

I would discreetly decorate the bottom edge of the sign with single-edged razor blades. It's your property, located ON your property--a ruthless response is called for, IMO.
|
|
this cant be good, that was pretty f'ed up to throw the sign in the bushes.
|
|
Just pick up another sign and put it in his front yard. Or put a bush bumber sticker on his car where he wont notice it.
|
|
Use a hose on him. Police rarely arrest hosers when it comes to neighbors. Plus, you can have him arrested for trespass and harassment. Maybe throw a bit of disorderly conduct in for good measure!
Hose the fucker like a bad dog! |
|
DAMN! That's a good idea - BG |
|
|
You can be arrested or sued civily for setting a "trap." That's a big no no and is very "not good" advice. |
|
|
I hate to say it, but despite how funny that would be at first he would STILL probably be in trouble. Maybe not from a criminal standpoint, but I bet the guy would have a civil lawsuit for sure. You know how liberals are...SUE SUE SUE!!!! Until I get my way!!! |

That could be considered a booby trap. You could lose your house over it. Bad kitty! Stake out, gunpoint, arrest, 911, charge is burglary and trespassing. Get some. |

can't wait to hear the reply
[sarcasm on] beat the fuck out of him [sarcasim off] |
|
Electrify the sign. Not enough to hurt him, just give a shock. Like the doggie fences.
|
|
Better yet, catch him on tape and then mail the tape to all the neighbors on the street and the local news station (not that they'd probably play it, considering most news is left biased). |
|
|
Or, put a shitload of black grease on the bottom of the sign. That stuff is hard to get off and smells bad.
|
|
For the sign: a length of barbed wire, or maybe some good-sized nails point-down protruding from the bottom edge. Or anchor it with 50 lb monofilament to a tree or house so he throws himself face down on the cement when he tries to throw it. You want pain, not injury. That way if you end up in court, the jury is laughing its collective balls off rather than being horrified by the neighbors finger stumps.
For the poster:

Put him under citizen's arrest. Hold him on your front lawn with your AR and then sue him. *

Carefully cut a patch out of your lawn, dig a holl the size of the patch, cement the post in, then cover up the cement with the patch. Videotape / webcam the resulting frustration as he attempts to yank the sign out.

That WOULD absolutely be considered a booby trap. But I know tbk1 was just joking. |

|
Take the wires that protrude down from the sign and stick them into two coffee cans full of cement. That way it will make it harder to pick up and throw, and you want get into trouble when he tries it again.
"Yes officer, I put cement there because the wind kept blowing it into my front yard." |

A booby trap?? Geez, you guys see boobies everywhere. Next you'll be seeing penises (peni?) in the site logo.
Is a man not free to decorate his personal property as he sees fit? I don't get it--the only way he could be harmed is by trespassing and attempting to do damage, which has already been confirmed to have occurred--according to a witness. He can't stay home and babysit his sign 24/7--I miss the old days. I still have my bear trap for occasions like this. No shit. Edit for spelling. |

I keep some paintballs in the freezer for situations like this. Put a fishing line on a can in your house and wait for the alrt. A frozen paintball is about the worst thing you can "legally" get away with...
|
|
Smear your feces all over the back and edges of the sign and the posts. No one will touch it! Plus the sign still looks fine from the front and gets your message out
|
|
OUCH |
|
|
Dry as the West Texas sand. |

Hell, just go to the local Republican headquarters and get all the Bush signs you can, put them on the side of your house that faces his, your car and in the lawn where he has to see them. Then call the local PD and sign out a trespass warrant against him. Simple and legal.
|
|
I'm thinking that a few well placed "Dog Log Landmines" would be appropriate, after he's done digging dog shit out of the tread on his shoes, he may think twice about sign napping. "Things that make you say EWWWWW"! |
|
|
Thats got to be the best one I've heard yet. I might do that myself since mine has beenstolen 2x now |

If this happens at night, cover your yard with something that will leave a trail.
Oil would be great, but it would obviously kill your lawn. Maybe you could make some really watery mud and spread it around the sign, as it wouldn't really hurt your lawn. Maybe ketchup would work, or blueberry syrup or blackberry jelly. What I envision is some dumbass sneaking up to your sign, then walking home, leaving a trail, and hopefully leaving stains on his carpet, too. |
|
Wrap a turd in some Kerry/Edwards stickers and toss it in front of his door. Afterall, that's what they are.
Then put up about 20 more Bush/Cheney signs in your front yard. LOL. If you must piss someone off, go all out. Hell, line the entire yard with Bush/Cheney signs, making sure you place as many facing his property as possible. He'd never try to pull them up because we all know that's too much manual labor for a liberal to attempt. |
|
Willing to spend a little money to solve the problem?
Secure the tripwire to the sign. www.stopthecrime.com/prod-ab2000.htm |
|
Just get some decent rubber gloves. It will be nasty, but effective. May have to reapply (rain, ect...). |

He has been gone for a long time! I wonder if police had to intervene!
|
|
oh I like that! OC the bastard! |
|
|
I like the black grease idea.. If he denys it today, definetely do it. Smear it all over that bitch, and go looking for him the next time it moves. Catch him 'black' handed. :]

Yup, fecal matter would work well....even better do this. Take some 1/4 inch PVC and cap the ends. Drill a whole buch of holes along the top and fill it with the nastiest concation you can find. I am thinking maybe a mixture of pepper spray, ink, and fecal matter.
Attach one along the top, and another along the bottom between the posts. It won't spill untill someone pulls it our and tilts it and looks innocent enough, even more innocent looking if you construct the whole frame from PVC. But once it is pulled up he gets covered in pepper spray and ink and crap! |
