Human Traffic Stop Report: Vintage Touch

"Mercy adds a vintage touch" was the title in the doll collector magazine for a precocious plastic pre-teen, a sailor-suited coquette with a provocative wink evoking for me the unmerciful, vintage--even ancient--touch of sexual merchandising on girls and women. What does mercy now require of us?
