Fed-Up NY Man Sets Up Hidden Camera to Find Out Who Was Repeatedly Stealing His Pro-Gun Sign ? What He Discovered Blew Him Away | TheBlaze.com

Not sure if he's still around here or not, but when I read the story, I recognized the screen name. Don't bring politics into this, it's simply a messed up story.

Yea I see it on FB already also.

Political yard signs | First Amendment Center ? news, commentary, analysis on free speech, press, religion, assembly, petition

Cop against 2A but carries a sidearm

What a fk'n hypocrite.

Next time he should wire the sign to 120v.......

 

[Lawmaker]

They'll just arrest the homeowner for illegally video taping a police officer.

 

[xdpatriot]

You guys don't know the 'whole story'. I'm sure that officer had a good reason for removing someone's personal property without a warrant. Stop being unreasonable.

Just thought I'd get a head start, I'm sure it'll get posted seriously.

Here, the "set back" is 12'.

Don't know what it might be up there...

im tempted to turn mine upside down. just not sure i want to make myself a target. Matches my feelings, but if you really feel its that bad, maybe its better to remain hidden lol.

Someday he'll just be another guy with a gun as his badge won't mean much when all hell breaks lose, you think he'd want other law abiding citizens armed, I sure do!

Remain hidden ?

 

[Switchblade]

At a minimum, the Officer broke the law by Petty Theft, Criminal Trespass, and possible Vandilism. He should be held accountable for his criminal behavior. Of course we all know he will cop a plea(hehehehehehehe)

 

[SledDog]

You're all assuming the officer acted on his own. It could be he was directed to remove the sign.

 

[Capt Academy]

Interesting topic

maybe bad choice of words, how about not drawing attention from the fruitcakes...

I saw an article yesterday about a memo that authorized the FBI to label you as a terrorist supporter if you openly discuss 911 "Conspiracy theories", such as the 2500 architects, scientists etc pushing for a new investigation.

So them stealing your yard sign? Be lucky you don't end up in a federal prison, arrested under the Patriot Act for your terroristic (sarcasm) viewpoint.

That doesn't make it right. If he was directed to do something illegal, he shouldn't have done it. Slippery slope, I think.

 

[VJJPunisher]

I'm not a dohnut eater but if he was told to remove the sign wouldnt he first knock on the door and tell the owner it needs to come down and explain what reasoning? I mean even if the chief says go take down so and so's sign do they have the right to just do it?

 

[VJJPunisher]

also i'd look into installing a fullsize billboard up now, concreted in posts, 5X bigger than his original sign

 

[eli polite]

shouldn't this be considered a hate crime as well?

at minimum petty theft and vandalism. Even if he was ordered to remove I would think common sense would tell him that he cant be ordered to break the law.

sounds like he's also against the first amendment......

Exactly what I was thinking too

 

[Flying Goose]

Someone said it above as the city typically has an easement on the street/highway etc, it is your obligation to maintain this land though you do not own it. Any improvements you make (I think this sign applies) can be removed. Ie if you plant a tree and it blocks sight lines on the street or corner. First question is how big is that easement in this area and second question is did that BI authorize him to leave the sign up or just said ok because he didn't want the fight. I'm not saying the cop was right or wrong no matter what I think he should have at least rang the bell before doing it, but we don't know the whole story, yet (hopefully).

 

[Cartman]

You are asking too many questions comrade. Report to reeducation camp 213 immediately.

 

[Long shot Roughneck]

Its an officer guys... We should not be resisting or questioning his actions.

I dont beleive this is right! A LEO is open to scrutany as much as we are. Yes most of them are (good guys) but just the simple fact that its LE doesnt mean we shouldnt question them on matters suck as this! Before anybody talks out there ass i do support them for the most part. Father in law was a LEO for 35yrs and i have plenty of buddies that are to,so no im not against them.

United states Dept. of Justice says otherwise.
