I am open to being persuaded that license plates are pointless or something but on its face being able to identify which cars are which seems to have a lot of useful law enforcement and traffic safety functions. — PolitiTweet.org

If someone wants to write an essay making the case that license plate laws are bad and should be repealed, I will read it. But if we think cars should have license plates then you can’t just let people drive around with fake or expired paper tags. — PolitiTweet.org

You can’t decide to enforce the rules against fake tags only *after* they are used to get away with a lethal hit-and-run, dangerous speeding, or a drive-by shooting — by then it’s too late! — PolitiTweet.org
