Well they got my Biden sign and my "hate has no home here" sign.

I didn't realize it until I went out to get the mail this morning. I put two more out just now, I have 10 in the garage.

There is a sign next to them saying I donate to the Democratic party every time they steal one. It stopped it once before but things are a lot more tense right now here in Oklahoma. A friend said a lady in her church as been getting nasty notes in her mailbox about her signs, she called the cops, but I don't think they will do anything. This lady is elderly and lives alone.

Get a cheap camera and record it, then turn it in.

"Hate has no home here" sign. That's so beautiful.

So sorry for your trouble though. It makes me so sad to read about incidents like this. These people are so pitiful and pathetic. I intellectually understand who these people are, but deep down I guess I really don't. What kind of a world do they want to live in?

I put it back into place and so far, so good. But that doesn't mean it won't be taken before the end of this. I ended up having 2 Gore signs stolen in 2000. So the chances are good for another outright steal because the temperature/passion quotient is distinctly higher.
