Chapel Hill, N.C. (AP) --
Shawn Turschak of Chapel Hill was tired of someone stealing McCain-Palin campaign signs from his yard. Turschak, with a degree in electrical engineering, hooked up a third sign to a power source for an electric pet fence Monday and also put up a surveillance camera.
The News & Observer of Raleigh reported that a 9-year-old boy with an Obama-Biden sign grabbed the McCain-Palin sign and got a jolt on Tuesday.
...Sheriff Lindy Pendergrass said he doesn't plan to file charges.

The father of this boy is such a whimp (union thug?), he has his dumb kid do his dirty work and in broad daylight...just does not get any dumber.
The little puke’s father is a professor? Gee, what a surprise. Typical liberal weasel. No respect for private property or the right of others to express an opinion different from his own. The ends justify the means, after all.
We had an old bull that loved the hot wire. He would back into the wire and shall I say...got physically excited. I'll have to admit...he never tried to push passed the wire.
I believe that BreitBart has it up, and you can bet your backside it's on Youtube real soon. Nothing to shut up a Liberal Daddy like 3.2 million views of the actual incident all over the Internet...
Ha. Don’t piss on an electric fence. Don’t piss off an electrician...
On my way to work this morning I saw a McCain/Palin sign on which someone painted a swastika last night. Of note was that the symbol was backwards - I guess the vandal isn’t real bright. The other sad thing is that the permanent sign (under which the campaign sign was hung) was also hit with spraypaint. I will make extra efforts to patronize the sign-owner’s business this summer.
Speaking of stealing yard signs. In 2004 we had a rash of that in our town. I had several yard signs in my front yard. I simply linked all of them together with copper wire and metal clipped them to each sign. The wire was, then, linked to my yard lamp post near the outlet box on the lamp post. The fake hookup was not live and posed no safety problem BUT the punks didn’t know that. Kept my signs up for a month without any problems. Others in our subdivision got theirs stolen though.
hmmmm I better rethink some of the things I’ve done to my signs then. Well Mabey not! LOL. The kid got shocked he learned a lesson..end of story. I guess his dem parents will want to sue the owner for mental distress and pain and suffering now? If he touched one of my signs his hands and eyes would be burning. Little brat learned a life lesson.
