Criminals we can get behind

You shouldn’t deface public property. You most certainly shouldn’t deface private property. And taking the law into your own hands sets a dangerous precedent. I get it. But these two men are doing the Lord’s work. Maybe someone can buy them a plane ticket to Ocean City.
Update: More about the heroic duo

Is it a bad thing that I laughed when I read the article?
Perhaps defacing an historic sign is beyond the pale, but the thought of this pair, touring the country, correcting government signs, is just hilarious.
I totally missed my calling. This is what I should be doing with my life. I have actually gone so far as to point it out to store owners/employees before, and got the same blank stares. The thing about telling them that they should get their money back from their sign people…..I have said those exact words.
I need to do this. I wonder if my wife will mind.
Alan:
She might. I once tried to correct a plaque in the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx – I don’t remember exactly, but it was something pretty egregious – but my husband wrestled away my Sharpie. I now carry a spare one in my sock.
