I have a single bumper sticker with an esoteric political/psychology joke on it. 98% won't get it, most who get it will laugh, the remainder will get pissed.
I always roll my eyes at the family window decals, though I do appreciate the t-rex eating the stick-figure family.
I live on the outskirts of the DC metro area, in a lovely area. Home break-ins are nearly unheard of (especially now that half the homes have Ring or other video surveillance systems), but people go through the streets looking for unlocked cars to pillage on a nearly nightly basis.
A parked car is simply a much easier target of opportunity than a home. What constitutes reasonable precautions for the two are very different. Personally, I can't legally carry in my state so I only have guns in my car if I'm going to the range. But I'd never leave one in my car even if I could. I also keep all my guns locked up at home, in a dedicated safe or a closet in my office with an electronic deadbolt.
