After the second time his “Trump 2016” sign was stolen from his front lawn, Michael Liotta decided on Tuesday to nail one almost 11 feet up in the towering oak tree in front of his Walpole home.

The next day, it too was gone, with a typewritten letter in its place.

“Mr. and or Ms. Trump supporter,” it began, “It would appear that you have placed your sign 10 feet and 7 inches above its normal spot ... I can only believe that you thought that you were outsmarting me when you put the sign on the tree. This is clearly false because there is no way that a Trump supporter can outsmart anyone. People of your kind are in fact the most dim­witted, low-level simpletons that any well-developed nation has to offer. I, and any other American who is against Mr. Trump, am better than you in every single way imaginable.”

The one-page missive ends with a vow to confiscate any more signs Liotta might place on his lawn.

“Not even a great wall will stop me,” it read before signing off only with an initial, “S.”

3. To be honest, I don't like that

As long as it is civil, people should be able to voice their political preference without this kind of almost harassment and insults.

4. I don't support fucking with someone's protected speech on their own property.

Stealing someone's yard sign isn't cool. I don't care who the candidate is.

5. We don't need for our side to stoop to such obnoxiousness. The man has a

right to express his political views on his own property. We'd be furious if a trumpster did this to one of Hillary's supporters--and rightly so.
