Yesterday at rush hour I was driving down Highway 55 (a busy 4-lane highway). There was a grass median in the middle of the road, and through a gap in the traffic, I saw a black man run across the road. He ran to the median, yanked up a Mitt Romney campaign sign, and went running back across the road.
I was so astonished and angry I laid on my horn. I couldn't get over the fact that he would feel comfortable doing that while about 50 drivers watched him. Isn't it some sort of a crime to steal campaign signs? Or shouldn't a person feel some shame that they are being so rude in front of many other people? I wondered if he was assuming that all who watched him were Democrats, and would approve of his actions.
Maybe he was just concerned that someone was littering the public thoroughfare with political propaganda without a proper signage permit! :)
