Title: A sign for our houses.
Post by: cooptire on December 19, 2008, 04:04:44 PM

I thought some of us might want to put up this sign to help out the poor disadvantaged criminals. ;D

My Dad used to have a "Keep Out" sign half way up his drive way, under neath was a sign with several holes that said "This sign ranged for 30/30"  ;D

My uncle was a storekeeper.  After several break-ins, he put up a sign that read, "Owner stays here, armed, 2 nights a week. Try to pick which ones".
He had two fellows try it on for size one night (he actually stayed more than 2 nights). After he filled both their ass-pockets with birdshot, the break-ins stopped......for good.

I used to have that sign on the front of my house and several stickers on my back door. I took them down after my neighbor lied to the cops and said I pulled a gun on him.

Yeah, those signs can get you into trouble with the Saviors of Humanity. BTW, don't post "Beware of Dog" signs either.  It gets weasel-worded from "You've been warned" to "That sign proves the owner knew his dog was dangerous, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, and yet did not do enough to protect my client from it."  Experience of an old college buddy...

Gotta love those lawyers.

Shakespeare quote from Henry VI: "THE FIRST THING WE DO, LET'S KILL ALL THE LAWYERS."

Of all the words he wrote those 10 are the wisest.  ;D
Maybe keep one or two for bad examples,"See that weasel chasing the ambulance ? Don't be like him."  ;D
