What did he hope to accomplish? Though it does prove that the opposition is afraid. I remember a few years back when a guy in the Denver area was arrested for stealing - I think it was Obama - signs. He was caught when he ran into a clothesline and knocked himself out. The home - and sign - owner found the thief knocked out cold in his driveway...

He was lying there covered with stolen signs! They caught both him and his wife - she was waiting for him nearby in a van filled with the signs they'd stolen. The homeowner called the police and they were both arrested. It really was karma - and it made the national news...

He probably also thinks there are still child sex slaves tied up in the basement of Comet Ping-Pong.

Was it just Ossoff signs or were they stealing other opposition signs, like Handel (doing it for Gray or Moody)?

That makes me tend to believe he was only charged once. He should have been charged with one count of theft (or malicious mischief) for each sign in his car, and there were many.

It's a non violent offense...only so much can practically be done I think...

their voting rights for all elections would be revoked for at least the next election for the same office.
