People taking your signs? use Crisco!

[thechitowncubs]

Did this yesterday, can't wait for the idiot to get goobed by a huge layer of vaseline.

Good idea!
Here in St. Pete I only put them up on Friday after 6PM and take them down Sunday night.
During the week the city will confiscate them so they are safe from the city on the weekend.
But if I forget I've noticed they will not take other signs only ours.
The problem is they are also being removed during the weekend by
other campaigns or people that simply don't like Dr.Paul.
I bet I've lost 2 dozen signs so far that way.

Interesting!!

Oil or vaseline mixed with fox pee and pepper oil. Interesting maybe that is the secret to catch a thief!!!

Ewwwwwwwwwwww.... You would need a gasmask on while mixing it up... and you would want to make sure it was WELL SEALED while out setting up your signs. LOL

The nice thing about the cooking oil is that it also serves to waterproof your sign against the rain.

Don't forget that most people who take 'em down aren't against RP, they're doing their job. Technically, it's littering.

Thats only partly true. Most states allow for political signs going into a campaign.

A police officer told me once, if you have a property leak you should use Henerys 401. They won't do it again.

It's not littering if you take your sign back after the primary.

Someone said this in another thread:

To make sure your RP sign doesn't get stolen; make sure and put this sign next to it.

heh, joking of course; some soccer mom would totally call the cops on you for that.

what's "Henerys 401"?

 

[jenninlouisiana]

same question.... henerys 401?

 

[yongrel]

Bearspray is very effective, I've found.

Henry's makes things like glue for wood flooring. What the exact properties of 401 are I don't know...

Urushiol oil concentrate, which is the active ingredient in poison ivy, works wonders to deter sign stealers. They can take one but their hands will be so full of blisters a few hours later they won't be taking any more.

Here's how to distill urushiol oil from poison ivy (many locales are lousy with the stuff). Safety first - DON'T TOUCH the stuff or anything used to make it yourself, and invest in AND USE 3 or 4 pairs of those thick dishwashing gloves while making it.

I don't see how it's littering as long as the signs don't stay up past election season. All the laws that supposedly limit the amount of time before an election during which signage can be placed are ridiculous. If someone wants to get an early start they should be able to.

 

[fedup100]

so i've been hearing a lot of other campaigns are taking RP signs...

step 1. put up sign.
step 2. in a windex bottle or any spray bottle, fill it with crisco or any other oil.
Reason.... if they try to put in their car its going to be messy

sure some people will take out signs, but its going to be a dirty job from now on...

dog shit on the edges works too!

 

[unloud]

Bump

 

[Crickett]

I love this. :-D

Ditto..they took down the only BIG one I had. If I ever get another I would slather lard all over the back of it next time..course, then the racoons or the deer would knock 'em down..

 

[Crickett]

Bow down before the one you serve. The people defining RP signs as such are technically metaphysical reprobates. They themselves are litter on the mindscape of man.

HTH

ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LOLLOL
