Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I saw some sort of PSA where they were diagramming how much a criminal could learn from these stickers, and one of the stickers was something like a picture of a gun, with the words, "Come and take them." And the criminal commentary was, "These people have guns that we can take."
I always wondered if it would hold up in court.
If you had a "come and take them" bumper sticker, a gun in the glove box, and forgot to lock your car. Could I legally take it?
I'm not a lawyer, but my understanding is that US law doesn't typically operate on technicalities like this. Would the "reasonable man" believe the bumper sticker was an offer to any passers-by to search the car and take any guns they find? I'll answer my own question — definitely not.
