CHAPEL HILL — After Shawn Turschak saw two sets of McCain-Palin campaign signs disappear from his yard within hours of being planted, he took some unconventional steps to protect the latest pair.

He ran wires from his house and hooked them into a power source for an electric pet fence. Then he mounted a surveillance camera in a nearby tree and wired it to a digital recorder to identify the thieves.

Tuesday afternoon the camera saw this: A nine-year-old-year-old neighbor trotted up with an Obama-Biden sign in his hand, grabbed a handful of volts as he touched the McCain-Palin sign, then quickly ran away.

Here's the video of it.

Notice the kid's father knew about this right away. The kid ran and told him. When you were little and something happened like this when you were doing something you shouldn't have been doing would you have run and told your father? No, you wouldn't have said anything to him. But if you father had told you to go take a sign, you would have told him about it.

If they thought it was community property, how did the father instantly know who to go yell at?

Now you're thinking.....deadbeat, lib parents.

So Mr Noble and Ms Gisladottir as parents have taught their 9 yr old son to:

1. Steal
2. Disrespect others' private property
3. Disrespect and stop others free speech
4. Tell lies(by example)

Am I forgetting anything?
