MANCHESTER NY Ontario County sheriffs deputies said a passing motorist saw someone stealing a McCain for President sign from a yard on North Main Street in the village Sunday night, so the motorist called 911.
Deputy Joe Murphy stopped a car around 8:20 p.m. on Route 96 in Victor that matched the description given by the caller. He reported finding numerous other signs for McCain and Republican congressional candidate John Randy Kuhl along with some Cub Scout signs inside in the car driven by Roger B. Wood, 35, of 101 Harper St., Apt. 2, Rochester.
Wood was charged with third-degree aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle when it was determined that his license had been suspended for failing to answer a summons in Rochester City Court, deputies said.
Wood wasnt charged with stealing the signs, but the investigation is continuing.
Its not known what political party Wood belongs to, why he targeted signs for Kuhl and the GOP presidential candidate, or why he also allegedly took Cub Scout signs.

Oh, I think we can all make an educated guess...
The fix is in....
Was he a Mormon for Romney?
Can we say jerk?
Paid union goon
Once again, Free Speech for ME, Not for Thee. The leftists’ mantra.

Prosecute him. There is entirely too much of this happening.
Local candidate for sheriff had over 45 signs stolen one weekend.
Liberals are, far too often, petty, nasty people. I’d pity them, if they weren’t trying to run (and ruin) my life.
ACORN member/thug...
Did the driver “get in his face”?
My yard sign is torn down, bent up or ripped nearly every night. Last night it was replaced with an Obama one. I don’t live in a trash neighborhood either. I keep bending it back and taping it up. Have a spare I have used to help spread out the pain between the two.
It started out just getting pushed back. Then taken out and dropped on the yard. then laying near side walk with wire frame bent. Then plastic was torn and wires bent again. Then last night it was torn even more and replaced with an Obama sign. found the McCain sign down the road.
It keeps progressing. Waiting for my tires to get slashed or something eventually.
If this were a hundred years ago, I’d just sit out with the shotgun and settle it man to community organizer.
Today,, what’s the point. Bigger battles may be coming.
Confession time. I stole my next door neighbors McCain Palin sign Saturday.
She had a McCain Palin and all I had was a McCain so I switched em.
When I got back from Church, they were switched back. I was hoping she wouldn’t notice.
No. Not the Cub Scout signs. {gasp}
That’s just wrong.
I just Googled the name, “Roger B Wood.”
Here’s one return:

Is this the same guy?

The party of tolerance.
Usually it’s the local Democrat party and its thugs that organizes this kind of activity.
But this year, Obama actually seems to be organizing a lot of this sort of behavior from the top.
Stealing campaign signs is probably one of the recognized activities of a Community Organizer, along with signing up dead people to vote.
So Obama knows all about it. “I’m Barack Obama, and I approve this message.”
He should’ve pulled out a taser and had a little fun ...
From this behavior, one can conclude that Democrats are thieves that don’t respect your right to free speech. But, of course, we don’t need more evidence of that fact.
And why is knowing this relevant to charges being filed?

Just quietly videotape it and put it on youtube.
Where do you live? What a nightmare!
To use an FR term...ZOT!
I doubt it is the same guy. The Roger Wood you located is in FL, this occurred in NY and the report indicates that the defendant has a NY residence address.
Kudos to your for your perseverence. Sorry you have some of those “tolerant” Democrat neighbors skulking around somewhere.
I’d suggest a few strategically placed rat traps around the sign should help.
His cousin is for 'change' and that change is deadly. He support Obama and Obama supports him:
Good thing he wasn’t stealing B-HO signs. He’d of “acted in a threatening manner” and been tasered, pepper sprayed, or shot.
4 years ago we had our signs stolen and then read in the local St Augustine paper that many were being taken.
They got the Dem who was going around taking signs form all over the county of st johns
Now I have just heard that keep normal marriage vote yes on question two (we have the marriage ballot question here in Fl) well some of those have now disappeared and loads of pro homo signs are up at major intersections
saying Jesus doesn’t discriminate, keep Florida families together, course it doesn’t say homo marriage as they are trying to trick people on the ballot question.
seems funny that when the homo marriage signs go up the keep normal marriage signs go missing
those who shout tolerance are the most intolerant I have found
Try what Dr. Bogus Pachysandra does. He rubs crushed poison ivy all over the sign, so whoever does steal it gets a little surprise in a day or so. WEAR GLOVES IF YOU DO THIS!
Yeah, it's a real conundrum. Militant Whig, maybe?
I have been livid this isn’t in the media more. It is more recent (since Obama got into the senate), it is very violent and has ties to terrorism.
Unrelated to this case, but a little bit funny, nonetheless.
An Al Franken sign was put up on a public road. The sign wasn’t stolen but someone stapled on an addendum to the top. It read, “Because I’m smart enough.” I laugh every time I think about it. Minnesotans have too much fun! :)
And the newspaper pretends not to know this criminal is a RAT.
Don’t think so...with my googling I was able to find out his middle name is Bruce and he’s been in the Rochester / NY area for a while:
Advanced People Locate for Roger Bruce Wood

I’m not willing to shell out the $20 for a full report tho :)
During the last election my neighbor placed signs in the highway right-of-way as prescribed by local and state law. Someone kept swerving off the road and running over them. After about the second or third time John simply drove some steel fence posts in at an angle behind the signs. the angle was just right to spear a radiator. The evidence the plan worked was clear a few days later as there was a anti-freeze all over the highway. I don’t know how far the person(s) got, but I imagien they will think twice about swerving for election signs again.
ive had two McCain stickers stolen off my cayr in my driveway A VIOLATION OF MY CIVIL RIGHTS.caught the scumbag my loving demorat father.
If Republicans were to steal Democrat signs, and get caught, it would be an instant headline, and the over Federal fed ACLU would jump on it in a heartbeat!
I confess that more than once I have thought about altering those dopey OBAMA:HOPE yard signs by overwriting the H with a D.
Being caught with a carload of stolen Obama signs would be a national headline.
Allegedly...
His comment was "Im as mad as hell and Im not going to take this shit, anymore."
That is scary.
I think this is him:

Sit out with a flash camera and when you scare the crap out of them, there's your DNA evidence.
Electrify the sign stakes.
I’m sure it was just a huge misunderstanding — like the firebombing of local Pubbie offices and massive falsification of ballots.
