While I don't appreciate the message on his sticker (I could care less if he likes to eat "anus").  It shouldn't be and is not a "crime" to express one's self on their own property.  After all, there is such a thing as The First Amendment.

As far as the "obscenity law", who is to say what is obscene and what is not?

Like you, I don't care what he likes to eat. I told my husband a similar thing- do and say what you want in private, on your property, in you own home, etc., I don't care. But when you're driving around town with this kind of stuff on your car, coming from your loud stereo in traffic, etc., it's a problem. 

My issue with it is as I stated above, how does a parent explain what that means to their young child? 

As someone who was subjected to a lot of adult stuff way before I should have been it's a personal thing and I hate that kids are having to see and hear stuff at such young ages in such public places. Kids can't unsee and unhear things anymore than adults can. That stuff stays with you and it's not good. 

Whatever happened to common decency? Or has that gone out the door along with common courtesy and being respectful? Being willfully offensive shows a lack of all of these.
