Dem Yard Signs Vandalized -- How Should We Respond?

A Worthington resident whose yard has good visibility, says he has had his signs for Dean Hernandez and Mary Jo Kilroy ripped up repeatedly. This is the first report of this that I have heard here in Worthington. Are other people having this problem? Should he make a police report? I know there were pretty fierce sign wars in Upper Arlington during the Kerry campaign -- the incident that sticks in my mind was that a Republican official (I think he worked for the city of Dublin) directed his fourteen year old child to take a sign out of a Democrat's yard. She had carefully obeyed all laws on where and how political signs can be placed, and caught them doing it. She did not prosecute because she didn't want to do that to the child -- but she, and most of us, were horrified that the father set such a poor, mean-spirited, undemocratic example. Is this just a sign of frustration? Weakness? Incipient Rovian behavior?!
