My Biden yard signs were stolen!


Any chance it could be like minded person wanting a souvenir? - if so, fine, but I am not that much of a idiot to actually think that could be the case. Of course it has to be some *rump cultist.

crappy start to my day.

... were stolen, but I wanted a "mint condition" one as a memento and souvenir.

I wonder if it's worth anything. (Probably not.)

... or they may have a pile of publicly-collected signs that are in decent shape and worth saving.

There’s going to be a lot of sour grapes among Trumpists out there.

It worries me a bit to think if there is any worse behavior forthcoming. I am letting the cops know, just in case. (do no call me 'Karen', please!)

The Trump Humpers/Boogaloo Bois/Proud Boys/mouth breathing dumb fucks are pissed off
and will be looking to get some "pay back."

Not quite as visible to the street, but that's ok.

10. The Trump signs in my neighborhood were taken down

I intend to leave my Biden signs up for another week or so.

But the Trump signs are gone. One neighbor had like 20 signs in his yard including a couple huge ones. When I drove past yesterday they were putting up Christmas lights. No signs.

12. All the Trump signs in my neighborhood

Were gone the day after the election. Biden/ Harris remain.

I live in a Republican District but there were few signs this year. I wonder how many voted for Biden?

13. I note that the fancy neighborhood two up from me with the 12 Biden: 2 Trump ratio

still has quite a few Biden signs up, but all but one house (the one with the ostentatious display of three big Trump signs plus Corey Gardner (!) and a couple of other local RWers) still showing for all the world. That is the only Trump sign I saw, though.

It is really shitty for someone to steal any sign, but I hope someone took it for more benign (souvenir) purposes...

14. A new one mysteriously appeared here.

With the pandemic I don't drive often and on Thursday I noticed something on the windshield of my car.

A two sided, large weatherproof placard that says in red, white, and blue

PERSON

WOMAN

MAN

VOTE

BIDEN


My neighbor says he noticed it Wednesday. No clue as to where it came from, but I have a theory that it was blown down the street and someone put it on a car in front of the only house with a Biden sign.

It's a keeper!
