Not sure I understand, but that's happened to me before. I think MANY people do but whimsical and personally meaningful, stickers and other symbols on their cars and homes( garden flags, favorite team symbols, bumper stickers and window stickers of their preferred political candidate, their choice, even Christians putting small crosses near their homes. To me, putting an NHL team sticker on a pigeon hole mailbox that is NOT in a federal post office, is not really akin to spray painting a statue in the courthouse or spray painting offensive words on public sidewalks, but that's just one opinion !
