They may as well just put a big old sign on their car saying "please abduct my child -- here's their schedule". I'd much prefer the Smith-Wesson Family display.

I see two ways to look at it: depending on an observer's attitude, he could see it as an opportunity or as a warning. The absence of the decal would avoid the question altogether. Bottom line: the less personal information you disclose, the better. Good question.

He wanted to run right out to put it on the car he drives (my car, he does not have his own yet). I told him to think about it and he asked why. My answer was simple, but in the form of a question: "Do we want to advertise to potential slime bag thieves that our house has guns in it?" I left it up to him to put on the decal or sticker, I really don't mind, but my question is something to ponder.
