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

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.

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.

Where would I get such a sign for my yard? For pride, you know.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 5 months ago (1 children)

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!

And much faster

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] 3 points 5 months ago

I'm guessing it's also illegal to add funny signs?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 months ago (2 children)

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] 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

I mean altering someone else's homemade sign on Their property.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 5 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

I meant altering someone else's home made sign

[–] [email protected] 21 points 5 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Yup

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

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

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 months ago (3 children)

MAGAts want to hang Mike Pence

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

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 37 points 5 months ago (4 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

Omg, you had me in the first half!

Not this exact one necessarily, but the idea is still valid

[–] [email protected] 23 points 5 months ago

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? 🤔

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 15 points 5 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

He hung on the cross for our sins 😤

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Think spray paint would work?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

For best results, hold a lit match in front of the spray nozzle.

[–] [email protected] 71 points 5 months ago (5 children)

Blue duct tape would be faster.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

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

Thanks

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (4 children)

If it's removable, the police probably may take it less seriously as it's hardly damage

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

Unless they are right wing chuds that want to send a message

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

Blue painter's tape, then.

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

Exactly, it's the thought that counts. Can probably come up with something fun for whoever he does pick
