Gotta be careful doing stuff like this. The law protects trespassers from purposeful or even negligent injury. One hope he has a warning about the sign being electrified.

This raises a lot of interesting issues since this was more than simple trespass, it was trespassing to commit larceny.

True enough. The trespasser could be sued or charged with trespassing to commit larceny but the trespasser could countersue or complain about injuries suffered while trespassing.

Stop some poor old lib’s pacemaker and you’ll be facing a manslaughter charge, even with the low power version.

We used to make electric chairs out of 6 volt batteries and model t coils. Two screens on the chair. If you lost the gag in the beginning of the meeting you got zapped youth for christ

law may protect trespassers, but not thieves. otherwise everyone shot while robbing a house could press charges.

Very appropriate when dealing with “2 legged livestock”!

Omigosh, I LAUGHED all the way through this, not because of the sign stealing, but the narration of the reporter! HILARIOUS!

“Sick bastard isn’t he?”

Yes, OF COURSE he is, since he’s obviously a Hillary supporter.

I have have had my hands burned, hit hard and electrified. Never had to shake and rub my poor hand after a shock, not like that.

I can’t confirm that I watched the same video because my tablet does not directly connect to YouTube from some links in FR. Instead, I searched YouTube using Chrome and found only one CNN video on jerks stealing DJT signs. It runs for two minutes and I believe it is the same video.

If so, what you will note is that, where it was planned, there was usually a driver and the thief. Where it was one person, mostly it was spur of the moment and the Trump sign was close by. The one turd who turned herself in, only ran a short way off the street to steal the Trump sign but only after she saw a car leave the house.

What this video (assuming it is the same video) showed, is that, other than the teams, most of the thefts are spur of the moment responses by snowflakes who are ‘micro-aggressed’ by the fact that people are allowed to disagree with their point of view. The idea that others are also allowed to express opinions that diverge from theirs, is beyond their synaptically challenged brains, thanks to the indoctrination of a poor school system.

Whether the original video, the source of this thread, is true or merely a spoof on such snowflakes, it is highly entertaining. The fact that Trump supporters ARE starting to defend their right to a differing opinion from the ‘useful idiots’ is encouraging. America is waking up. Too bad Kanada ain’t!

Many years ago we had a series of bicycle thefts in our neighborhood, including one of my son’s bikes in broad daylight from our front yard. He put it down by the front porch; 20 minutes later it was gone. I was planning to wire a bike to a plug in the basement and wet the ground. Mrs. JimRed said no. She’s smarter than I am.

Would I be out of prison yet?
