In case anyone seriously considers doing something like this, you should know that vandalizing or removing political yardsigns is a misdemeanor in every state and can carry fines of $1000 and up to 90 days in jail per sign.

Sharing the meme is pefectly legal though.

[-] [email protected] 109 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, so make sure not to get caught

Sign is 4 years old, and MAGAts want to hang Mike Pence because he didn’t go along with the failed coup.

MAGAts want to hang Mike Pence

Is that what we're calling pumping now? Hanging Pence? Whatever floats their boat.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago

Should be legal to modify any signs on your own property, though.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Yup

It might also be legal to distribute your own parody political signs

[-] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago

Wouldn't it only count to political signs placed by the party in question? I don't think making your own sign would count. That would just be normal vandalism wouldn't it?

[-] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago

If it's your sign you may do as you please with the sign. Displaying it in your yard may be less straightforward, as it may no longer count as a political sign and fall under a local sign or art ordinance. Probably.

Making your own sign wouldn't be vandalism at all. That would just be subject to local ordinances about displaying signage.

What are the chances of finding an intact Trump/Pence sign at this point though?

The overlap between people who would put these signs up and the people who shoot other people merely for appearing on their doorbell cameras is pretty wide.

I support but do not recommend this type of vandalism.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 2 weeks ago

We need drones with paint rollers!

[-] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Just buy a sign and prepare it before you go so all you have to do is swap signs.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

Or steal the sign, modify it, and put it back. That way no money goes to them. We're already committing vandalism, what's a little petty theft?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

True, but since you're taking the old sign you can prep that one and swap it with another sign. Why not hit as many as you can?

After seeing two of my neighbors put up Trump signs in 2016, I said "no fucking way are we ever putting a political sign on our lawn." I'm not going to risk anything around these people. Who knows how insane they are? I don't even want a knock on my door and a lecture.

it's probably less illegal than stealing signs.

Especially if you're using duct tape or something, it's hardly even vandalism at that point.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 2 weeks ago

I don't much care about the legality. I'd be much more concerned about a Trump supporter sitting in front of a monitor staring at a hidden camera feed of the sign on his lawn, just itching for someone to vandalize it so he could come out guns blazing,.

Blue duct tape would be faster.

[-] [email protected] 19 points 2 weeks ago
[-] [email protected] 25 points 2 weeks ago

Unfortunately, that's a Trump|Pence sign, so this is a bit out of date. The notion is still a valid one.

There we are, I knew someone would streamline this for the masses.

Thanks

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Would also need white tape or white sharpie to get the final E in Pence to be an S as well

Pence isn't his running mate this time, wouldn't work.

Guess you missed the VP announcement, it's Jonathan Fatcock

Omg, you had me in the first half!

Pssh, nah, of course he will run with the same VP from before! Or did something happen to make his VP not trust him for some reason? 🤔

[-] Omgboom 8 points 2 weeks ago

I still see so many of these flags flying and bumper stickers everywhere though

Has trump even picked his vp yet? Whom ever it is better have a lock tight exit strategy because his last vp was literally minutes away from being strung up by Trump supporters.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

I bet anyone he does pick will just think that surely the leopards won't eat their face

What about a white sharpie though? They used something white on the capital C and E to make them into I and S.
False advertisement! I want my money back!

Your mission, should you choose to accept it . . .

[-] [email protected] 15 points 2 weeks ago

I don’t wanna gag. I wanna straight up choke. Give it to me hard.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

The only thing we need to give you hard is a Bible and choke you with the Holy Spirit 😤

You didn't even mention the best part: how hung Jesus is!

Think spray paint would work?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

You'll probably gag on spray paint, so yes.
