I am sorry - but I can't "understand it" at all.
It is vandalism.
Not if it is on private property without permission. I know mitt is satan in your eyes, but back off the stuff budy
The DEMS in the last election tactfully placed signs at the end of my street where you would have to look straight on at them when you were at the stop sign (there was not another road, just land). I repeatedly removed Sherrod Brown signs there (and they would replace them), because I didn’t want that area of my street/neighborhood to become a dumping ground for campaign signs). On the side of the road is fine, but not head-on. I kept putting them in the dumpster.
