Get Off My Lawn!
This is the second time that someone has stolen the "SUPPORT OUR TROOPS... BRING THEM HOME" sign out of our front yard.
My husband and I have discussed numerous options. So far almost all of them are extremely labor-intensive and/or morally suspect, but I thought I'd list them anyway.
- Put a "No Trespassing" sign next to the other sign.
- Use Quick-Crete to cement the sign in
- Cover the sign with poison ivy juice and itching powder
- Set up a surveillance webcam
- Fence the yard
- Electrify the sign
- Booby-trap the sign
- Borrow a gun, stay up all night, and when we see them coming, shoot in the air
- Borrow a gun, stay up all night, and when we see them coming, shoot them

Kudos to you for having the courage to put up such a sign in your yard. Good for you.
I wish there was a place locally where I could get such a sign, although I am sure it would be stolen pretty quickly in the land of Bush lovers here.
I'm also in Buschcoland... My Nadar sign in 2000 (yeah, yeah I like the guy, still) and my Kerry sing in 04 was cruhed by some a-hole. Probably with his hummer. signs just don't last in my yard.
I would do ALL OF THE ABOVE!
I remember when I was a teenager and people would knock down our mailbox with baseball bats...they would just do all of them in a row on our block. My stepmom stood outside and waited for them and caught them in the act. She pretended she had a shotgun and they never came back...
Not that I condone violence...but hey, it worked :)
