Political sign thief caught on video

November 3, 2012

Alleged sign thief

For weeks, signs promoting council candidates Kevin Rice and Dan Carpenter and mayoral candidate Steve Barasch have been disappearing from yards around the city of San Luis Obispo. Earlier today, a local man captured a video of a woman attempting to steal one of Rice’s signs.

On three separate occasions, Rice and Carpenter signs have been taken from the corner lot that sits off of Foothill Boulevard where the woman was discovered removing a sign. She claimed she wanted it for her room and that her name was Rice before she ran off.

Rice is asking anyone with information of who the potential thief is to call him at 805-602-2616.

RICE THIEF HAS A LIFE, WISE GUY NEEDS ONE

Ya know, with all (6?) of the wise guy posts removed, mine rings hollow.


Might as well take it down

She kept avoiding the camera, trying to hide her face. Clearly, she knew she did something that would get her in trouble with the law, once known to them. Find her and teach her the lesson she clealy needs to learn. You don’t take property belonging to others.


Kevin, watch your car keys. She’s on the loose!

It is a pathetic statement as to our election system in this country. If you need to print up yard signs with your name on them to try and win an election, then you are a loser already. it should be below a persons dignity to print their name on signs and them spread them around town in hopes that ‘name recognition’ will get you elected, all the while, polluting the visual landscape. You should all be ashamed….

what’s that I hear…it’s a free speech issue…really? You have got to be kidding me…your name plastered allover town on cardboard signs is a free speech issue??? wow…try reading the newspaper…free speech and expression are being squashed all over the planet, from North Korea to Myanmar. Real persecution is taking place, so get over you first world political problems and quit printing up that garbage in the first place…that goes for all that crap in the mail too.

I think there was some person in Cambria running on a platform similar to that.


But I can’t remember his or her name.

Oh, maybe if he had signs polluting the view shed, then he could be proud that he got elected because people recognized his name…that’s a noble way to get elected…might as well give them a cookie and see if they vote for you that way.

If we are ever going to change the culture of elections in America, you are going to have to remove the ego of our leaders.

Vote for leaders who let their life be their their resume for positions of power, not pathetic road signs or other infantile campaign literature.

Who the eff are you high horseman?

Listen…you ought try riding a high horse when it comes to politics…instead of the donkeys all politicians seem to ride…I guess the Capps/Maldanado race is the kind of politics that should make us all proud to be Americans

Heh, interesting how no one comments (cares?) about Steve Barasch’s signs. Hmmm..


Now, if someone were swiping Don Hedrick’s for Mayor sign’s, I would understand that (not approve, but understand). They are some sweet-looking signs! (the round, lavendar, recycled taco works lids).


Maybe she’s in a UNION?

Oh good God. Have a nice day.

She ran off without the sign so she’s most likely NOT Guilty of anything…in a Court of Law.

She’s young and being __________

Pardon me, but if you take something that is not yours, it is called stealing and every seven (7) year old should know that. Aside from being a thief, she is an idiot and unfortunately that is not a crime.

O.k. her last name is Rice. So why Dan’s signs? Are you Carpenter by trade?

Carpenter and Rice are running as a team. They represent the Republican/Tea Party/developer/anti-homeless faction. Carpenter, the appointed councilmember, intends to appoint Rice to the council in two years in exchange for getting him appointed the last time around. Remember Rice’s videos and online smear campaign? The race is rigged. Do not vote for Carpenter or Rice, who is right-of-the-Tea Party. There are much better candidates.

WHAT!!! Get real and tell the truth, democratic’s only is what you are trying to say to go along with Mayor Marc’s, Councilman Ashbaugh, etc… At least be honest about your position – oh, I forgot, you’re a democratic,

BS: Stop acting like such a salad-tosser. I don’t know if you’re Corey Black or one of his assistant tossers, but you’re making a real ass out of yourself. Please gain control of your emotions and stop acting like such a desperate loser.

Wonder what else this little theif steals in association with Rice?

grocery stores better be on high alert ! You know because she

Likes things with the word Rice on them. Better check your rice pudding aisle!

Ahhhhahhh she should be so humiliated!!!! Laughing stock,!!!!!

Rice and beans is the same as Rice and Carpenter. Both will upset your stomach.

Hush, Cory…

RICE TO RICE: STEALING SIGNS NOT NICE


0

Anyone whose last name is truly Rice is welcome to have a sign by calling, not taking off the street.

Classy. Kudos to you.

Look how many “likes” this comment has. Did Kevin log on under multiple names just so he could like his own comment?


0

Sure looks like it, thats what happens when people are illegally living in their trailer without a job spend their time doing by logging on multiple names or ip addresses for example. I think everybody knows Dan Carpenter is going to be relected, if there was no signs of anyone, Dan will still get elected.


No one realizes Keven Rice is illegally campling his trailer and living on the street where the girl was running for example. As far as the video, I think someone is spending too much time videotaping in their trailer illegally living in it than looking for a job to get into a permanent home.


There are also homeless people posting signs on people yards without permission because they want more free benefits to elect Rice.
