It's bad enough that the SCOTUS has just rewarded terrorists with the rights of Americans. But now the anti-victory Democrats and Libtards are rewarding vandals for their criminal activities.
IDAHO FALLS, Idaho — A war protest in which 179 stop signs were defaced by stenciling the word "war" in white letters under the "stop" has morphed into an exercise in free market capitalism.
A judge ordered that at least some of the defaced stop signs belonged to the people who vandalized them once they paid restitution. Those signs are now being sold — briskly and at a profit — for $80 apiece.
"I really am shocked almost weekly by hearing people tell me, 'Thank you,"' 19-year-old Alexander Piet told the Post Register. "It's really refreshing."
Piet and 20-year-old Craig Bakker vandalized the signs last year, and earlier this year pleaded guilty to misdemeanor vandalism in 7th District Court.
Piet and Bakker were each ordered to pay restitution for 20 signs at $60.86 per sign, adding up to $1,217.20. Both also were ordered to pay a $500 fine, plus $72.50 in court costs.
Piet has paid his restitution and received his 20 signs, and has sold 14 so far for $80 apiece. At that price, if he sells the remaining six, he would recoup $1,600 in all."
Nice. I'm all for capitalism, but all this Says is,"HEY GREAT VANDALISM GUYS!"
