Election Year Bonus For Us Shooters

Don't forget to grab some target stands.

Bad things happen for a reason. Sometimes that reason is you did something stupid.

I thank you, Leslie thanks you (those who listened to radio shows "back in the day" should remember this from Leslie Salt).

The signs actually belong to the candidate, I feel like if they abandon them for an extended period of time (a year) they are fair game, otherwise, I leave them alone.

When the sign is given by the candidate to a citizen to place on the citizen's property it becomes property of the citizen. If the citizen gives you permission to take the sign, it's yours. A drive through your neghiborhood the late evening of election day, or a day or two after will get you a nice supply with permission.

In our area, such signs are not permitted on public property and are fair game for removal. They are removed and trashed by road crews. Lots of them pop up on public property in the early morning of election day. I get most of mine from roadway medians the night of election day. We  go through 30 or 40 signs a year on our hunting club's rifle range.

But don't go on someone's property and take a sign without permission.
