That's why I refuse to put NRA, AR-15, Glock, Magpul, Molan Labe, or anything firearm-related on my vehicle. That stuff goes on my ammo storage for the range.
In today's world, it's best to not use your vehicle as a platform for your political views, interests, sense of humor, etc. That's what social media is for.

I suspect that if we had fewer "gun-free zones" we would also have fewer car burglaries that result in a gun being stolen.
That as well as fewer accidental discharges resulting from holstering and unholstering.

Much like aircraft, guns are most dangerous on "takeoff" (unholstering) and "landing" (holstering), and safest during "cruising" (being carried).
