AM: My Blue Van Isn’t That One

The communities of Coeur d'Alene and Post Falls have been on the lookout for a blue van that is wanted in several reported attempted child abductions. Unfortunately, for the owners of blue vans, they're under suspicion almost everywhere they go. The owner of this blue van, for example, probably was stopped at least once by police who were looking for a blue van -- and doesn't appreciate the unwanted attention. I spotted this sign painted on the side of his van Saturday morning while it was parked at his home near Borah Elementary.

Question: In view of the suspicion surrounding blue vans in the Coeur d'Alene area, would you try to get rid of your blue van if you owned one?
