I can see this leading to paint wars, with paint
nozzles being fitted to the rear bumpers of cars to
prevent you getting close enough to spray out
bumper stickers. This would lead to escalating levels
of derring-do and potential violence. [+] |

The inevitable consequence of this will be an increase in aggressive and inconsiderate driving, road rage, and possibly numerous unnecessary injuries and deaths. |

It must be done immediately. |

Why does this need to escalate to violence? As long as the spray is soft enough a fairly quiet, the recipient won't notice until long after the job has been done. For all they'll know, someone cleaned up their car while they were parked. |

[+] A methanol - fueled flamethrower. Colorless flame for stealth. Could be used on entire vehicle if bumper sticker is really nasty. |

Most bumper stickers would benefit from having a Wikipedia-style "[Citation needed]" sticker (see link) stuck next to them. |

I have a friend who got an unexpected shipment of 1,000 "Earth First" stickers. He likes to put them over the registration stickers of Hummers. |

Also, beware: In many places, it is actually illegal to discharge liquid from a vehicle. I guess there used to be a lot of problems with windshield sprayers turned backwards, water ballon fights gone horribly wrong, and/or spyhunter style oil slicks. |
