An Indiana man who was targeted for the Donald Trump poster he had erected in his front yard decided to take a stand against any future thieves who didn't share his political inclinations - by booby trapping the sign.
The Indianapolis man, who wanted to only be identified as Phillip, said passers-by had twice tried to steal the sign in the last month, and so he took matters into his own hands.
He jerry-rigged the sign with fishing wire that had been painted green and put up a video camera on a nearby tree, ready to catch the next thief. Or at least their attempt.

In our part of the country we describe a fall like this as “a****** over appetite”.
Of course that will happen if a person is running and the other leg acts as a pivot point. Watch here where it repeats in slow-motion at th end:

The line goes taught just as she puts her weight on her right leg and her left leg flies up as she faceplants. I only hope the name of this fat pig is plastered all over Indy on billboard with this image and the following caption:
“Integrity is what you do when no one is looking”
Lefties love free speech as long as your comments agree with theirs. Locally we had a school election. The conservatives signs were routinely defaced yet none of the union’s candidate,s were touched. Also notice how conservative speakers are shunned on campuses.

Heh.
“Ass over teakettle” is the phrase I’ve heard most.
I think the sign stealers are organized and paid for their thefts. Maybe some Soros organization with a name like "the Sign Equality Campaign" runs it...
“And now....someone in Washington state ELECTRIFIED their Trump yard sign...”

Shocking news!
I had an anti-Bill Clinton bumper sticker on my car back in the day. I’d had it for weeks on my car. It was never tampered with until one evening I parked it in the lot of my local library, which was holding a meeting in one of its conference rooms. When I came out sometime later, I found my bumper sticker had been half torn off. Any guesses as to who the group was who was meeting in the conference room? The local chapter of the NEA.

Have heard that version also but had forgotten about it-thanks for the reminder. My dad always used the version I used whenever I fell down. My mom would get really upset with him for using such “foul” language. She certainly would never have been able to handle some of the words used now.
I think he needs to ratchet up the joules a bit!
You need a club with flatter, faster trajectory.

Funny - it was our Mom who used the phrase most often!

I don’t think my folks would approve of how things have gone downhill that way, either. And they’d probably tell you that you needed some mental help if you told them you paid hundreds of dollars for a phone, lol.
over here we would say “base over apex”
or in less polite company, “ars* over t*t”
if you told them you paid hundreds of dollars for a phone, lol.”
IMO people are indeed crazy for paying hundreds of dollars for a phone. First phone I can remember our having was a crank one on the wall. Twelve party line and our ring was one long and two shorts. Anytime anyone heard a phone ring they picked it up and listened. Guess we had our own version of Facebook but it was literally “on the wall”. Then we had a dial phone with only four parties. All numbers were seven digits and you had to call O for operator to place a long distance call. Remember when the push button first came out. My dad had a fit about the extra numbers on there (the * and the #). Thought they were a waste and would never be used for anything. Having lived through all the changes, my preference is for the portable one with a land line but then I only use a phone as a phone. Probably considered weird in this day and age.
Don’t you just love it when a plan comes together? Poetic justice for the would be thief.

Heh. New ones to me!
Oh, yeah, we had a party line when I was about toddler-age. Sometimes, for years, we didn’t have a phone at all.
I miss seeing pay-phone booths here and there.
These days I have a landline phone and a $10 cellphone from Tracfone, which I rarely use.
Lots of good times on the old dial phones - wore off a couple numbers on it from repeated dialing to win contests the local rock station would have.
