HAHAHAH. What I need help with I suspect after tonight they will wise up and either not steel it again or just wear gloves defeating my anti-theft system. I NEED IDEAS other than Vaseline for the next time. I am sure you freepers have some ideas and have had this happen to you before so I thank you in advance.

Rub poison ivy all over them. if that doesn’t work, take a day off work and watch them day and night out of sight with your shot gun.

You need to put the hottest chile powder you can find in the vaseline. Then when the perp wipes his eyes or takes a leak...Whoa!!!!

OMG! I had the same thought with my stolen McCalin/Palin signs - Vaseline!

I would definitely sit outside with my gun. The hunt is half the fun.

Glue razor blades all along the edge. Or, post another sign close by saying tresspassers will be shot on sight.

How about Pepper Spay?? Spray the signs down real well the person in your neighborhood with puffy weepy eyes is your suspect. Or Doe scent? LOL Spray that stuff all over the sign. If all else fails there’s always Doggy Doo!! I would be meaner than that though......But I don’t want to give away any of my tricks...My McCain/Palin signs will be stolen at the thieves own RISK! LOL

Try tying some cans to a string and tie to the sign, then cover the string with leaves. It should make enough of a racket to alert you.

Borrow a guard dog and give him just enough chain so that it is a bit longer than the yard sign and leave the dog out at night.

Your lawn may get a bit damaged but it will grow back.

Gettin our first sign tomorrow.Dare anyone to deface it.

Shotgun blast recording with trip lights and camera flashes going off,Would make a good picture.

A Candid Camera type of moment.

Those types sicken me,plus you could kick their butts with one arm tied behind your back , standing on one leg.

I want to meet one.

Oh yeah, walk your neigborhood with a pooper scooper and put it all around the sign. Or you could put broken glass all around it.

I have plenty of McCain signs. If you lived closer I’d send you some. The other day I was in the fast food lane and a lady asked where she could get some signs. I gave her some bumper stickers and gave her the address. Looks like your signs are in demand. lol Most of the offices should have signs now. We got in a bunch last week.

Just a small upgrade on your vaseline meme.

Silver solder a few straight razors at an oh-so-slight angle (10-20 degrees) so the hand slippage is rewarded with a message- Thou shalt not steal!

Razor contaminants optional.

I use roofing tar. The kind that doesn't dry. Once it gets on your hands, it'll take days to
get off without mineral spirits, a fact not many know about. And it gets on everything.

You could connect the metal frame of the sign to your doorbell, they’d get an electric jolt and might take the hint.

Or you could use high-strength fishing line to rig the sign to a paint sprayer, the next day tell the cops that your culprit is bright green (or whatever color strikes your fancy).

Seems I recall seeing ads for a motion-detecting lawn sprinkler thingy that squirted water from your hose at intruders (and rabbits, mainly rabbits).

How cruel do you feel like being? You could rig the sign to a gun loaded with blanks and scare the pants off him!

The only improvement, would be to place horse or dog crap in the spot where they will step....in the dark, it won’t be until they get in their car, that they notice the smell! Hehehe!

Step 1, dig a pit.
Step 2, whittle pointed sticks.
Steps 3-5, use your imagination.
