Democratic yard signs dissappearing.

[unsubstantiated]

Several in our neighborhood just up and vanished overnight. All of the Trump, Joni, etc. signs were still in tact. I lost 4: Biden, Greenfield, Finkenhauer, and Quinn.

Anecdotal for sure, and I sure didn't need it, but further proof to myself that republicans are gutless.

I was wondering this too NW DSM Metro all Biden signs close to street gone. Mine remains as next to house.

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

I have a small BLM sign on my door.

No broken windows yet.

 

[SL Hawk Fan]

In NJ, that might qualify as a hate crime.

 

[hawkeyez]

Meh...I'd venture to guess the yard sign stealing/vandalism is close to equal on both sides. Not excusing it, just stating an observation.

 

[hawkeyez]

This is from 2016, but the karma here is too hilarious not to share.

Someone suggested hooking a few up to the 220V house current, but I ain't doing that.

I live in a pretty rural farm area, but I can't believe someone doesn't have these guys on closed circuit, doorbell camera, etc. We have cams but the signs were on the very N&S edges of our land. Infrared doesn't go far enough.

 

[H4wkfan4life]

Advertising shouldn't be allowed in politics and no I won't call it campaigning

 

[JohnBasedow]

The tolerant right, folks!

Put new ones closer and see what happens.

About a month ago, on our neighborhood Facebook page people were posting videos of a vehicle that had been driving around our neighborhood stealing Trump signs. The contracted constable pulled them over and warned them (people requested that no charges be pressed).

The funny part is, some of the Democrats were complaining and demanding the videos be taken down because which party's sign was being stolen was "irrelevant" and that posting videos of the vehicle and the thieves was "putting their lives in danger". 😂

Yep. I should set up about 20 signs ( 5 of each candidate) and put a dedicated camera right on them.

 

[BelemNole]

I'm surprised.

I didn't expect them to be able to read the sign or have a working car.

 

[Obviously Oblivious]

Replace signs, hide, when offenders grab sign in yard, shoot them dead. Castle doctrine.

 

[boxahawks]

Jeez, when I was 14 my friends and I stole all the signs we could just for a collection. It ain't necessarily a conspiracy.

You can use it for toilet paper if you start running low.

 

[WorldSeriesChamps2015]

If you put up political signs in your front yard, you should be punched.

 

[Whiskeydeltadeltatango]

I like the multiple camera idea, 99% chance its someone on your street, but, 1%...

I would gladly keep them off of my lawn if the deplorables would do the same. I had to look at "Hillary for Prison" signs four years ago, and now I'm seeing "Socialism Sucks" signs.

I just want people driving by admiring my large, well-groomed acreage to know that we are not all redneck racists.

 

[unsubstantiated]

Just lined up two 4'x8' Biden/Harris signs. Plywood mounted on two steel fenceposts. And I don't have to lift a finger.

No thanks, big guy. But I am excited about the jaggoff that stole my signs having to look at 64 sq, ft. Of Biden signs every night for the next few months.

We would steal a bunch of Real Estate signs (house for sale) and put them in the yards of kids we didn't like. The cops were able to recover the signs and return them to the realtor, so no REAL harm was done. We thought it was clever at the time.

This was just partisan stupidity. Those signs are in a dumpster somewhere.

You showed them!

Hey, the signs obviously bothered somebody. 20 or 30 new ones and a few huge ones with a security cam pointed at them should really piss them off.

 

[unsubstantiated]

I also found some old flag lights. My 4x 8 signs will be illuminated at night.

 

[TarponSpringsNole]

I have no idea what motivates people to take the signs in the first place. Seems like a waste of time and energy over nothing.

 

[lr1007]

Dems don’t like it when some republicans start acting out like Dems.

Dems hate Trump because he’s the first non dem politician to be as uncouth as they are

 

[r4hawks]

I drive mainly through small town Iowa. If you wanted to steal a Biden sign it would take you the better part of the day to find one.

 

[WisestIowan]

I had a Gary Johnson sign in my yard in 2016. The gay guys down the street loved it but they had a Hillary sign.

 

[WorldSeriesChamps2015]

I had Gary Johnson's Johnson in my yard in 2016. The gay guys in my house loved it.

FIFY

 

[Whiskeydeltadeltatango]

soooooo....... it wasn't aliens?

 

[beanerhawk]

As teenagers we'd gather up all the political signs and put them in different friends yards, pretty funny stuff. Both parties, I guess we didn't care if it was Clinton or Bush CSB/

They can be found at the nearest gun range......with a few holes in them.

Yep. Only Pubs are stealing signs. JFC the idiocy of some people is mind blowing. My friend had his Trump flag ripped down and a rock thrown through his window 3 weeks ago. So are all Dems vandalizing pieces of trash then?

To that point, I have seen very few dem yard signs for any of the races yet. What are they waiting for? Very few bumper stickers either. Are they afraid of their neighbors knowing they are horrible people?
