Absent signs

Has anyone else noticed that there are no presidential campaign signs anywhere? I asked both Trump and Clinton supporters why they thought this was happening, and I finally found an issue on which both sides agreed: They are all afraid someone from the other side will vandalize their home or car or attack them in some way. What do you suppose this says about the state of our country? It’s a good thing that our votes are private.
