We knew that. Some of us were trying to discuss the legal impact of the sign if it were to ever occur. I am sure all of us with legal backgrounds are very sorry for adding some debate to this thread. Shame on us for thinking. Shame on us all.

It is a straight-forward negligence case. You have a duty to your neighbor not to increase his risk of being robbed, harmed, killed, etc. By posting this sign, you have breached that duty. If he is harmed by someone entering his home because of your sign, you caused it. And if he is harmed, he has been damaged. The elements of negligence are (1) duty, (2) breach, (3) causation, and (4) damage. You've got all four here. It isn't going to be a viable defense that you breached that duty by speaking - speech can be an action as well as an expression. You can't go into a bad neighborhood and post a notice that your neighbor is on vacation for a week and doens't have an alarm and then claim free speech protection when he gets robbed. Just sayin...
depending in what part of the country its in, a lawsuit on this sign probly wont see the light of day. CA and MI maby SC&TX not so much. But the sign is funny.

You can have a different point of view, but putting your neighbors at risk is a bad thing, and this sign is putting them at risk by clearly marking them as an easy target for burglars and robbers.
Good, they deserve it. They should be sued? How retarded. Anti-gunners deserve what they get.

Simmer down. Not a good way to get acclimated to this place.
I think that it would be a really good idea if a mod just deleted this unfortunate thread.

Inflammatory posts are not what we're about here.
You might want to head over to the New Inmate forum and introduce yourself and let us know what brings you here.
The choice is yours.
