Yeah no robber is doing this.

Stalker yes. But most people don't get stalked.

And this is coming from someone who thinks any bumper stickers that contain any words is trashy.

Only bumper sticker I have says "shoot your local predator" with a camera (thanks anxiety war!) What does that say about me?

We’re getting a whole introduction?? Why not put your SSN on there while you’re at it?

I remember for a while back in the late 90's maybe, a lot of kids would have one of those custom airbrushed shirts youd get at a flea market or county fair with their name in BIG BOLD and colorful lettering all the way across the front.

Little kids playing at their local park could easily be approached by a stranger saying, "hey joey! Your mom told be to pick you up. She's in the hospital and we have to leave right now!" The panicked child follows the man who is seemingly confirmed sent by his mom because he knows his first name, forgetting anyone who's not legally blind within a block of him also knows his name.

Luckily we don't see much of that these days. Creeps are now limited to accessing merely every single detail of a child's life because mom runs a Facebook or Instagram for their child.

That you're a bloody idiot for having non mandatory stickers on your car?
