Best to put them in the back yard, so he can enjoy them but not trigger anyone driving by. If only he had done that, then she wouldn't have seen them and none of this would have happened. But something tells me he wanted everyone driving/walking by to see them, even if they offended. You might even say he was willingly being offensive - but expected no repercussion. Hmmmm.

Well, it wasn't just an opponents sign. There was also a "Hillary for prison" sign with bars around it.
I don't really understand all the hubbub about a finger either, so.... either everyone has a right to be offended by whatever offends them, or no one does.

Well all political sign offend me, Trump/Pence or Hillary/Kaine should I go take pictures of all the signs in my neighborhood, post them to social media, then flip off the homeowners and then spew vulgar language at them?
Do you chase women in cars when they offend you with gestures? How do we know he didn't have a prison cell prepared for her too?
Facts are the facts, chasing someone in a car, means you're a psycho.
Edit: Unless you're Liam Neeson and they kidnapped your daughter.
Thank you for showing a real, honest to god absolute failure to keep perspective.

Have ya read some of the posts on this thread? One person said they thought the cop should have shot her in the mouth. The ass kicking comment by another poster was probably one of the tamer ones.

Well, yes she is, but in this case that's only because she agrees with the cause of the offender.
If this person had driven by and flipped the bird at someone ... say a transgender or a gay person ... and that person had taken offense and followed up, then she'd be defending their right to do so and further, she'd be outraged that the cop didn't do anything about the obviously transphobic or homophobic attacker who flipped the bird.

I support the finger!
Maybe there should be a law that says any political signs should be inside the home or in the back where it would be difficult for anyone in the public to see.

did you see the sign? it's clearly meant to cause offense, imo
if I had put a sign like that in my yard and someone flicked me the bird i'd laugh my ass off.
this guy was a puss, straight up.
she's an idiot, too.

To be honest, that is why I think there is "his" side to this story. One little lady flicking just her finger would be a joke! she obviously did more and that may explain the edited cuts in "her" released video where the officer was speaking. What he was saying perhaps was not beneficial for her supposed cause.

Honestly, I don't care that the woman flipped the bird at him. I don't care that he followed her because he was upset.
I think either both actions are permissible or neither are, but you can't say one is allowed and not the other based solely on who supports which political position.

A finger is just a finger though.
If that's all it was then you're right, he definitely overreacted too.
