How is it not fair?
Things stuck in a lawn without permission are vandalism.
It does not matter if it is crosses or forks. It is still vandalism. And it is not out of line to assume that it is vandalism until there is evidence presented to show that it isn't.
If a painting is hanging on a wall, it is not going to look like vandalism to any reasonable person. Why should it?
