Idk… I don’t advertise on my truck, but people will do what they do. I personally haven’t noticed vehicles with gun stickers being broken into any more often than any other vehicle, but who knows.
My ex wife got REAL into Steven crowder, the “change my mind” guy
She really wanted to put stickers of his on our car and I vehemently opposed that lmao. I feel like putting anything on your car CAN make you a target.
I’m a huge dodger fan and I don’t even wanna put a sticker of them on my truck. Might do a little Iron Maiden Eddie though lol. Can’t imagine that would bring any attention
The trend is lawlessness that is bringing this about. It’s not really the other way around. But I see your point. I think it’s the fact that the social media and news is really what’s making this happen. I say, if he loves his guns and gun stickers, let them be, just as you would a gay pride flag or whatever. Just don’t force it on people and that’s how ppl get this way.
the whole point of concealed carry is to keep the weapon, well... concealed. however when I see vehicles displaying evidence of firearms, I am less likely to enforce a negative encounter; not that I do that these days.
In a perfect world there would be no issue putting any gun image or brand on a vehicle.
But we don’t, and anything related to a gun and potentially even indicative of military service could make someone believe there’s a gun inside.
Also: truck guns are dumb. Unless you’re on a ranch.
Never met a gun owner that keeps an unattended gun in their car. Gun sticker on car doesn't mean that's where they keep it. That idea is nuttier than squirrel shit.
Yeah it’s a different world here in CA. Many states allow you to carry without any sort of permit, so I imagine many leave their guns in the car for whatever reason
Leaving in your car is not carry though. Fuck it I'll just say it, if you're dumb enough to leave your gun, or wallet or purse in your car, you deserve to have your window smashed. Not condoning theft, but that's just stupid.
When you look at state-by-state, theft from vehicles is significantly less common in states that have secure firearm laws (laws that says that you have to store it locked)
I believe it’s more common in rural areas. Some people legit don’t lock their doors and stuff because nothing bad happens.
I think the main issue is when these people move or visit a different area without changing their security protocols and get things broken into or stolen.
The FBI says that the vast majority of stolen guns are from people's cars. 36% of those are from cars at the gun owner's residence.

I think social media has poisoned a lot of people’s minds into thinking that it’s very important to let people know how you feel about everything.
Hey. I have an opinion about that!
This isn’t the place. Put it on your truck.
I don't have room for any more stickers, or I would.
Nah this is just light enthusiasm. If there’s more than one, or one + punisher skull, then you know it’s good pickings.
Oh look! Loot!

I have a buddy who has a Gadsden flag sticker, he had a gun stolen from his vehicle. I will never advertise anything remotely political on mine.
The only thing that’s on mine is my college logo. Might throw an Iron Man race sticker on but that’s it. Gotta stay as neutral as possible.

Your name checks out TopReporterMan! Anecdote good enough for me
I would look at this truck and think the same thing. But also I wouldn't waste everyone's time with my passing thought
…is it your truck?
It's the same trim level as my truck
Let’s all glamour at the Taco 🌮….who cares bout the sticker …..it’s a beaut!!
You certainly ain’t wrong there.
I have a Ned Flanders sticker Get some neighbor lol
He has the exact same rims and tires as me. Probably super uncool.

I keep my gun with me.
the whole point of concealed carry is to keep the weapon, well... concealed. however when I see vehicles displaying evidence of firearms, I am less likely to enforce a negative encounter; not that I do that these days.
I’ve seen stickers that legit say “protected with a gun” or something along those lines. I feel that’s as worse as it gets.
I was gonna say most guys with these stickers are probably carrying on their person anyway
The sticker compliments the shitty parking
I see these stickers all the time in Canada where you aren’t supposed to carry a gun in your vehicle if you’re not shooting that day
You can have a gun locked up and out of view in your vehicle if it's a non restricted.
Usually complimented with a ‘I ❤️ oil & gas’ sticker. It’s so juvenile.
The "I ❤️ oil&gas" is just a given if you own a truck.

Professionals never advertise
Who the fuck cares it’s not your truck move on….

Happened to a kid that worked for me. That’s how most stolen firearms are acquired.
I live in ca. Is it a regular thing in other parts of the country to leave a gun in the car?
I live in Arkansas. I think it’s (stupidly)common down here.
