A pair of California men went on an apparent Donald Trump yard sign-stealing spree this week and filmed several of their exploits for the enjoyment of their Twitter audience.
One citizen IDed Lemoore, California residents Angel Mendoza and Rolando Vega as the culprits, and combined their videos into a single one, likely in case they were deleted.
The first video shows a woman being beaten on the front lawn of a home while she tries to protect a Trump sign.

When this article was published, he had merely protected his Twitter account from the public. Now it was deleted altogether.

Your post is shocking to read. Terrifying, if you want to know the truth, because I suspect much of what you have stated is true, and had been true for the last six or seven years. It almost reads like some dark dystopian npvel, until I think about all the many times I’ve seen violators of the law come out in the open, do their crime based on racism, class envy or gender issues and get away with it. Even when ‘arrested’ or subdued by the police, they often escape prosecution. Scenes like this happen a lot today in the United States.
Or put a Trump sign out in front of your yard, get some friends together with ax handles and wait in the garage. When they come, treat them accordingly.
Move sign to another location. Rinse and repeat.
I like the way you think.

Now are these the much publicised ‘white hispanic’ types or your good old fashioned mexifornia wetbacks ?
The chances of this being reported in the MSM are close to zero. But if there were video of Trump supporters stealing Clinton signs and punching a woman, it would be all over the evening news.
About three elections ago, EVERY Republican sign in my neighborhood was defaced, whereas all the Democratic signs were untouched.
Interesting that these stories of violence and vandalism always seem to involve the left....
One, of many, reasons for this is because liberals know that they can get away with it.
There will be NO helping the victims coming from the GOP at any level.
Liberals know that if they are victimized for political purposes, that they can count on assistance from the Liberal establishment, all the way up to the President of the United States.
Conservatives have no such support network.
More often than not, the GOP and conservative establishment will actually side AGAINST the common man that has been targeted.
I have a really neat idea on how to handle this. Any long-time Freepers interested, freepmail me.
You are exactly right.
The FEC is meaningless, this is “voter intimidation”.
Mr. Obama told his shock troops “get in their faces” and they do.
Barbara Bush, Jr.’s homies.
A video circulating on social media claims a group of Lemoore youth recently assaulted a woman and stole Donald Trump signs from residents’ yards. Local police say the video is misleading.
The video shows a man punching another woman in front of a house. Subsequent clips show a group of juveniles driving around stealing Trump-Pence signs from multiple yards and using profanity to express their dislike for the Republican presidential candidate.
Various social media posts determined the incidents happened in Lemoore.
Lemoore Police Chief Darrell Smith said police learned about the video and immediately started to investigate. After reviewing the video, Smith said, police determined that none of the locations shown in the video are in Lemoore. Police were unable to locate the assault victim or anyone who had Trump signs stolen from their homes.
“If it did occur in Lemoore, we were going to make sure they were held accountable,” Smith said.
Hanford police saw the video Sunday along with the caption, “White woman being beaten over Trump sign.” Hanford police Lt. George Hernandez said an investigation found that the fight and the sign thefts both occurred in Hanford, but they were not related.
“There is an assault that occurred, but it had nothing to do with Trump signs,” Hernandez said.
Police said the fight occurred around 7:50 a.m. Friday in the 1300 block of North Douty Street. A juvenile reportedly witnessed the fight and recorded it with his cellphone. He left the scene after the fight.
Later in the day, police said the boy who recorded the fight and another boy both decided to steal Trump yard signs throughout north Hanford. The boys posted the videos of the fight and the thefts on Twitter and Snapchat.
The two juveniles who stole the signs were cited and released to their parents on theft charges. The juvenile who committed the assault was cited for assault and released to his parents. None of the suspects’ names were released because they are minors.
Hernandez said the fight was not related to the woman’s political views. He said the victim told police she never had a Donald Trump sign...
