My Kerry sign stolen
Yeah, we've heard other incidents of this
but I didn't think it would happen in my
fairly diverse neighborhood. One day up,
next day gone. $5 each.

So I put up signs for blocks around that
say:
"You stole my Kerry sign,
but you can't steal my vote."

1. Way to go, Fed!
I'm planning something like that if we are ripped off. Hasn't happened yet, knock on wood.

2. Way to go!
This time we're fighting back!

I love it.

Two years (almost) before anybody dared whisper anything negative about the repubs......and now...everybody is finally able to take a stand!

4. I think I posted before about my neighbor around the corner
who gets their/E sign ripped down the middle. This is the second time I've seen it. Poor Repug bastards. I'm sure we're not doing the same thing to "them".

5. mine was stolen as well this weekend...
I was going to write a new one as well but decided to go to Dem. HQs for another. Excellent counter-sign!

6. Here's what I recommend for your K/E signs:
Here's what I recommend to make the culprits have stinging fingers. It won't cause permanent damage, but might cause some temporary discomfort.

Using dried red cayenne pepper flakes, make a "tea" (quart of boiling water over 1/4 c. flakes) then strain through a coffee filter and spray over your sign. Let dry.

The oils released from the peppers will stick on the sign and then on the fingers and skin of the thief.

Handle your own sign with gloves that you can wash, or throw-away gloves.
