We’ve already had my mini-van broken into.
Unfortunately, my kids are gang smart, and they know the realities of living in this state. I was up near Oakland last weekend. There’s no kind of protection for a vehicle when you are not with it, and I know my car would have been targeted with a McCain/Palin sticker on it.
I also drive kids around a lot, and I’m not going to put them at risk.
This reminds me of when I was a young teenager, living in Southern California. We attended a rally for Nixon in 1972, and a couple years after he resigned my brother had the bright idea of putting up the bumper sticker on our station wagon.
We both thought it was funny, but my dad said, “Don’t do that. Do you want to have somebody throw rocks at our car?”
Even then, we were living in a dangerous world. What is it like now with these deranged, ruthless, ‘Rats?
FWIW I understand your concern for your children so any remarks I’ve made would not apply to cars carrying children in unsafe areas. Me? I’m 57, in good shaoe and relishing the thought of an Obamanut getting in my face because of my bumper stickers. LOL
Fair enough.
