looks like dad sent him out to do it in the first place. Then dad lies (democrat trait) then gets owned by the video. Dad should be looked at for child endangering.

I'll add the rest for you: It's then okay to act like a VICTIM and scream about how your little precious was VICTIMIZED.

This is how an Obama follower thinks. Truly bizarre and pathetic.

The idiot father and mother no doubt put this little kid up to this. Great parents...I just read an interview of the stellar mother: She made up a total load of bs to make the kid look like he had NO CULPABILITY. The kid is going to grow up to be a jerk just like the parents.

What is up with this video?
there are several interviews with the guy a dog fence was put up that carries the electricity. There are yellow caution signs on the ground around it as well.

The parents of that kid should be sent to jail and the kid sent to foster care.

I bet you don't know what you're talking about, the video clearly shows the sign well back from the street which is not city easement.

Somone I know actually knows this guy. Don't want to say much more but apparently he's fairly pleasant, though the group that knows him was shocked (no pun intended) and the emails were flying among them. I guess it was something he thought was a good idea because he didn't count on a little kid taking it...dumb jerk...

I mean I know the kid shouldn't have tried to take the sign but at what point should you electrify your campaign sign. Just not a good idea. The guy's an engineer.

And if the kid had not touched it at the behest of his parent(s) this thread would not exist.
Just go back to what started it and then stop there...
