BANDIT SIGN POLICE ARE IDIOTS (RANT) - Posted by waynepdx

I went tonight with 30 new bandit signs that I made up to replace the ones taken down that I placed last week.
All of them except one were thrown on the ground next to the telephone poles.
It is just amazing how they hate bandit signs but they dont mind littering.
Well last night I saw one of the bandit sign police taking down signs and he had a ladder the same size as mine.
Well I swung by home depot this afternoon and bought the roofing nails with the plastic washer and a 12 foot ladder.
Well now my signs are 4-5 feet higher on the poles now and cant be ripped down with just a tug.
HAHAHAHAHAHa.
It was such a shame because not only did I get my signs back up, I got to cover another 20 intersections with the replacement ones I had.
Stupid (*(&)#@()(& anti bandit sign police.

Seems like alot of work to me. Why not drive 5 miles down the road and put them in the ground with stakes instead of spending hours up on a ladder dodging vigilante bandit sign removers?

-How high up are your signs now, what R dimensions?
-Did U really go out there w/12’ladder,no one saw U?
-I go thru same thing, SHOULD I WORRY ABOUT ‘SIGN POLICE’? AM I TAKING A BIG RISK? (repercussions)
This is the main area I have problems w/ads.

If your worried about the real police. They usually call you and give you a warning first. Then you know what town to not put them in.
I have had that happen out in Sandy, OR before.
I just said that the people I paid to put them out were not supposed to put them there and I went and took them back down. BTW I dont pay anyone to put them up for me.
It gives me something to do late at night.
Put them out late at night. Take a ladder and use roofing nails with washers.
I have never had any anti bandit people call me and moan and whine yet.
I tend to keep mine up at main intersections with businesses where it is generally accepted.
Its when you start throwing them up in residential areas that I think people start having problems.
And yes I took a 12 foot ladder with me. I put them suckers way on up there.
And I always go late at night when there are less people on the road.
