Trump yard sign set on fire in Henry County

Mountain View

A military veteran returned home to a campaign sign on fire in his Henry County yard earlier this week.

William Powers told Channel 2 Action News that someone set fire to his Donald Trump sign and ripped up all the other signs he’d had out.

So the Republican party volunteer went to the county’s GOP headquarters and asked for the biggest Trump sign available and nailed it to his front porch, Channel 2 reported.

“I say, I’m going to fight fire with fire,” Powers told the television station. “Can you give me the largest sign you have? So he gives me the Donald Trump sign that’s like 8 feet, looks like 8 feet by 5 feet.”

Now his homeowner’s association will send him a nastygram.

It's 8x4 feet.

And if they torch that one, he's out of a house. Hope he's got a little "surprise" for anybody that tries....

The Clintoonie Nazis are starting to panic. They may not get a Nazi America after all.

Hope this man is able to defend himself against potential attackers.

Arson is a serious thing.

This guy is a Conservative Black, so of course whoever committed these acts will be charged with hate crimes. [/sarc]

Was Glenn Beck in the area?

Maybe Stu took away Glenns stabby knife and gave him a burny-burny lighter.

“the burning...it wouldn’t stop!”

That is no different than burning a cross in this man’s yard. In fact, I’m surprised they didn’t.

If there is a problem with the election it will be the liberals who go nuts. If the election is “halted” for some made up reason neither side will believe the government isn’t involved.

Military vet so I assume he keeps and maintains some hardware on his premises.

Some kind of booby-trap wouldn’t hurt either.

Believe me this coverage by the AJC is an aberration! They are completely in the tank for any Democrat. The AJC is as corrupt and slanted as they come when it comes to biased reporting and editorial content.

Oh, you’re right. I love them because a VERY Conservative friend of mine used to get his Editorials published there. Don’t know HOW he accomplished that, but he did!

He’s dead, now. I’m PRETTY sure AJC didn’t do it. I hope.:(

“Some kind of booby-trap wouldn’t hurt either.”

Depending on the state, that could get him some jail time. The person who put razor blades on his sign which then cut the vandals hand could be facing criminal and civil charges.

Houston church with Trump sign was burned down this past weekend. They’re still looking for the culprits.

“... I love the AJC ...”

There is nothing to be loved about the Atlanta Journal/Constitution.
They are a bed of democrat/socialists.

Even a blind hog will find an acorn every now and then.

This is my county. I see very few signs for either candidate. We are not a super safe county any more. Losts of hostility.

A couple of counties over where the Walking Dead is filmed a lot, there are tons of Trump signs.

It is a safer area, even with the zombies.
