Fake plates may work once or twice, but what happens in some cities in California is if you have too many outstanding tickets on a specific plate number they will impound your car regardless of who the plate is registered to. So you'd have to keep switching plates since they record the plate numbers. Also you have to be careful about garage sale plates as they are often stolen plates since in California the plate stays with the car for the life of the car (unless your plates are stolen or lost then you get new plates but the old plates are listed as missing in the database and can't be used). The old plate could have outstanding tickets on it as well. If they do impound your vehicle they have no way of contacting you if the plates are fake, so you're stuck trying to figure out where you car is, then proving that it's yours. While out of state plates used to be a pretty safe bet, now the computers of many states are tied together, and the vehicle that the plate is assigned to may show up on the officers computer in the car, and if it's not the proper vehicle you'll be in a lot more trouble than just a $50 parking ticket. It's just another bad idea by a communist that's trying to undermine the U.S.. Advocating illegal activity is something that Bill and other Republicans may support, but in reality it contributes to higher taxes when people don't pay their fair share. All the sales tax evasion by buying out of state drives up taxes for everyone else and hurts small business (not that Republicans have ever cared about small businesses!).

So this has all happened in the last 8 months? If it was before that the you are talking about the last 8 years of Republican government? Logic never was your strength. It amuses me how the Republicans in the US are all complaining about all sort so "injustices" from the liberal/socialist government but when you look at the complaints they are exactly the same rules and situations that the US has had for the last 8 years under GW Bush... If it was wrong for the last 8 months it was also wrong for the preceding 8 years. The greater crime is Bush's not Obama. Given time I am sure he will correct many of these things you are complaining about... Bush's errors. -- \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ \/\/\/\/\ Chris Hills Staffs England /\/\/\/\/ \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/

It's the evidence, Bill. What those stupid liberals consider is the evidence. What the stupid fools don't realise is that if you take facts seriously you might have to change your mind about some things. That's why if you know you're right it's so important to ignore facts. But liberals are too stupid to realise that. -- Chris Malcolm

When more people have guns, more criminals have guns. It's easy to get the drop on someone when you have a gun, even if they have one too. With knives, clubs, etc., you have to sneak up a lot closer, and are less able to harm someone running away. As for DC, it's not much of a test being right next to VA where there is not much to keep anyone from getting a gun. |
