One of my Page County, Virginia buddies out there by the Shenandoah, a
guy who is completely non-political, says he is planning to buy a .308
rifle to scare off the "assholes who put Trump yard signs on his
property along the state highway without permission." I don't think
he'll shoot any of them, but I'm guess their pick-me-up truck tires
might be targeted if he catches them.

And that's not being political?

Yeah, he didn't want anyone's political signs up on his property. The
property is posted -no trepassing, no hunting, et cetera.

Ok so now it's anyone's signs. Not just trumps. Why didn't you say that to begin with?

Apparently the Trumpsters were the only ones who stuck political signs
on his property.

What the guy may not realize is that he doesn't own the land just beside the road. That's typically a right-of-way that is owned by the state, and is where those signs were likely placed. If he uses that .308 on someone's tires as suggested, he'll just end up in jail. You can't use a rifle to "scare off" someone without consequences.

Sounds like aggravated assault to me and in Florida it gets you a
mandatory 20 years if you fire a gun.


Hope he gets the rifle, whatever he gets, because I'll be able to
"borrow it" on my trips out there...though he said ammo was not cheap.

Typically you can get 7.62x51/.308 for around half a buck a round
(brass) but if you want the good stuff it is a buck or more. That
chinese/russian steel is cheaper but I will not put it in my M1A.
I still have a bunch of military surplus that I got for 33 cents a
round. It shoots very well.
.....

I shot a. Bunch of steel in my m1-garrand. It worked pretty good. But I made sure to clean the barrel to get out any redefine of spent powder. Even though it was supposed to be safe, I still didn't trust it's "cleanliness " as of to say..,

He should be sure it is actually his property. Usually the state owns
30-40 feet from the centerline of the road. That is even true in
little neighborhood streets. It is 33 feet (from C/L) in front of my
house. If I wanted, I could make the county mow the first ~10 feet of
my yard. It was the same in Clinton. I found that out when I wanted to
widen my driveway. I ended up making it 25' wide on my part and the
existing single lane in the ROW.
