Comment on What car stickers say about you

I don’t put stickers on my cars typically. But man is this paranoid to the extreme. Unless you’re driving an expensive car it’s unlikely it would make you a target for anything other than road rage.

I mean, my spouse has received death threats because of her line of work. We have 2 small children and we make sure they have no online presence at all (no pictures, comments, tags, etc), and we intentionally make sure to not have anything identifiable like this on our car. Our other family members have been included in threats before. If someone, for any reason, is targeting you, youre actually giving them a ton of information. Its easier to just not put it on your car and not risk it

Yeah there’s personal tunnel vision for you. I’m lucky that my line of work is not the type that would enrage someone to violence so that didn’t occur to me. I’m going to assume your wife is helping people in a way that crazies don’t like. Please don’t shatter the illusion if it’s because her work hurts people.

She does help people. Shes a family law attorney and she deals with some real crazies and some real shitty situations. If shes getting a person/kids out of a domestic abuse situation, that other person gets real hot when they get a restraining order against their kids.
Or some other levels of crazy where her client believes their husband is trying to kill them by slowly poisoning them. She had a client bring in a bottle of shampoo to be analyzed because she was sure thats how he was doing it. Also that he was breaking in and spying on her and yada yada, but literally no evidence, so she couldnt give her any legal support. Well that person feels wronged. And hey, theyve been in your office where you have pictures painted by your kids so they know you have kids. If they see you go to your car in the parking lot with those kinda stickers, the crazy can continue (this is the person that actually threatened her father).
