'19 Kids & Counting' Duggar Family Buys Cop Car Lawn Ornament To Deter Trespassers

Looks like the Duggars are through with having unwanted guests stopping by their house to pose for photo ops. While the family has stirred up controversy with different groups such as gays, pro-choicers, and even Catholics, the family decided that to protect themselves from those looking to do them harm that they would place a police car in their front yard to warden off any unwanted advances. The 19 Kids and Counting family has gained a lot of negative attention for their viewpoints and decided to set the car up in their yard as a decoy for potential trespassers.

According to Radar Online, it seems that John David, who is the oldest of the kids has connections to the police department, as does the patriarch of the family, Jim Bob. The news site is speculating that the car was purchased at an auction by Jim to be placed at the gate of their Arkansas home.

"It certainly gets your attention, if that was the intention," a passerby stated of the cop car. "Anyone who watches the show knows the Duggar family has guns in the house, so the cop car is more like a not-so-subtle warning."

In the past, the family has had people stop by to take pictures in front of their house, including one lesbian couple, who made headlines when they kissed in front of the house after Jim Bob and Michelle refused to post pictures of gay couples kissing to their Facebook page.

The Instagram user wrote in the caption, "My girlfriend and I stopped in front of the 19 kids and counting house and shared a loving kiss. We love the Duggars, God and eachother."

We are sure that the cop car placement will definitely be deterring those couples that are looking to do this in the future.
