that some jerkhole vandalized. If it happens again, I'm going to start messing with the Dave Reichert (R-Weirdo) signs that are everywhere.

A dimwitted drone can just jump out of the car to grab a sign & run.
Figuring out how to, then stealthily sabotaging a lawn is far more effort.
If I'm right, their lawn is safe.

Someone would put weedkiller on the whole thing. But it would be time-consuming and expensive so I dunno.

"They go low - we go high."

I'm SO tempted to just swerve a 'wee bit' to mow down that row of signs & flags that are SO wrong (that GREAT flag being claimed/groped/fondled/degraded by that SLUG! ). But, I resist.

Just like when I kept seeing signs of that Orange Pumpkin saying: "Miss Me Yet?" I SO badly wanted to have about 50 stickers made up that said "F**K NO!" and make midnight raids to deliver the message on the signs as a response.

I guess we really can't allow ourselves to go that low, can we? (But DAYUM, we COULD have some fun!).

I thought of installing punji traps and scattering caltrops in the yard around our Biden sign. My better half talked me down.

It really makes a mess of your hands so it's best to use gloves
