I"ve got to respond with a story on a regional talk radio show a couple of weeks ago. It seems there was a gntleman that had a political sign in his yard that supported a particular candidate. The signs were stolen and replaced several times (it happened across the border in Vancouver, WA). One night the person thought that he would wait out the perpetrator and greet him with his dog on a leash. Sure enough about 1AM a car drove down the street and stopped near his house. Someone got out of the car and walked onto his lawn. Somehow the dog pulled the leash out of the owners hand and pinned the suspect against his car. The property owner walked over and opened the door of the still running car and pushed the door lock button, then closed the door and grabbed the leash for his dog and walked off. Not long after there was a knock on his door.When he answered the door there stood the suspect with a sherriff"s deputy. The property owner walked out to the vehicle with the deputy and the suspect. The property owner told the officer that he thought he detected alcohol on the suspects breath. The deputy admisnistered a breath-alyzer and the person blew higher than the legal limit. Then the owner recognized the person as someone that lived in the neighborhood and asked him why he was a Washington resident with an Oregon plate on his car ( a lot of people do this to get around WA sales tax). Needless to say the suspect spent a few days in jail which he should have. I deliberately left out the party affiliation here because it is not important, just the fact that somebody actually beat these no-count idiots.
