AP - In exchange for jail time, a woman and her adult daughter have agreed to stand outside a courthouse holding signs saying they stole a gift card from a 9-year-old girl on her birthday. Fifty-six-year-old Evelyn Border and 35-year-old Tina Griekspoor stood outside the court for 4 1/2 hours Tuesday. They held signs that read: “I stole from a 9-year-old girl on her birthday! Don’t steal or this could happen to you!” Because the women agreed to hold the signs, Bedford County District Attorney Bill Higgins says he’ll ask for probation instead of jail when they plead guilty to the theft. Higgins says they swiped a gift card that the girl set on a shelf while a Walmart employee helped her. The girl’s mother planned to drive by the courthouse to teach her daughter the importance of obeying the law.

Another day another story about this fucking retarded punishment that is like all the rage right now.  Seriously holding a sign?  Who comes up with this stuff?   I mean this dumpy old bitch even got to sit.  What a joke.  I’d have absolutely no problem standing outside with a sign.  “I took this girl’s gift card.”  “I stole a candy bar.” “I fucked my girlfriend’s sister.”  People would be like patting me on the back giving me high fives and shit.  I’d be the toast of the town.  And that’s in exchange for jail time? Hmm sounds like an even trade off.  You can stand outside for a few hours with this sign or you can go to jail and get ass raped in the shower then shanked in the fucking neck. .  You’ll take the sign?  Ok sounds good!  That’s 3854000 for the sign 0 for jail.
