Election fever! A Chapel Hill, NC, 9 year old kid was shocked while stealing McCain yard signs.

Watch and judge for yourself:

Fanaticism can lead to tragedy. For sure, the young boy will remember that stealing is bad. As the Bayaka of Congo say, “If a child wants to touch fire, let him touch it; he will learn that fire burns.”
