My client has his Obama signs stolen almost every day...
Fortunately, Jim is an activist & gets his signs wholesale. He's also learned to chain his larger signs to a tree on his front lawn -- these signs now end up flat on the ground.

Wouldn't we all like to see video of the neighbor(s) trying to steal the signs but having to settle for just pulling up the stakes??? :rofl:

1. Why hasn't he erected cameras to find the perpetrators?

2. I'd love to see people setting their Obama/Biden signs in cement,
about a foot deep in the ground. :D

Do you think the signs are being stolen by anti-Obama people, or by people who want/need Obama signs?

3. Those signs are the best freeper bait I have ever used.
I've caught 5678767654543231 neofreeps just this week...Just kidding.

Nobody has bothered mine so far. It's 15 feet inside my chain link fence and right under my street light.

4. Someone put a McCain bumper sticker on my car
I have two Obama stickers and a bunch of other diversity and peace stickers on there. I'm surprised they found a space. I think I know who did it but I'm not positive. It made me laugh as I tore that sucker off.

6. I bet that person is dying to see if you removed it.
Now's the time to put something ELSE there so THEY will see it instead. HAHA! :D

9. Tell your client to whip up a mixture of vaseline and dried, crushed hot peppers
Using rubber gloves, smear the mixture all over his signs, a thin layer is all it takes. Not only will it make things more difficult to pull out, but the severe "discomfort" the person who does the pulling will experience will probably teach them not to mess with your client's signs again.

13. My son(still to young to vote) has anti-Bush and Obama stickers
on his car. The car has been scratched up all over with some object all over the driver door. Because of his stickers? I don't know. But maybe a factor? Yes.
