I refuse to voluntarily pay more taxes than I have to. If they weren't taking our money and screwing us with it, it would be a different story.

+1 Even with expertly gathered statistics it can be tough to differentiate the cause from a coinciding effect. Are more cars with vanity plates vanilized because of the plates or is it that cars that are more likely to be vandilized are also more likely to have have vanity plates? If you've read Freakonomoics, it goes into some good examples of this kind of thing.

Personally, if I put myself into the mindset of a self-hating moron who'd have the lack of charactor to willfully damage someone elses property, I think I'd be more likely to go after a car with a "better than you" vanity plate than one without, but that's just a gut feel.

Very true, very true.
Vandalism is probably very near theft as far as losses go and vandals are mostly those caught up in the mainstream media/liberal class warfare mode, who somehow believe my hard work and sacrifice to own a very nice car, keeps them from having what they refuse to work for.
Personally, my vision, hard work and delayed gratification have produced many jobs for others, over the years, and I can't think of one time my actions caused someone else to be "poor."
To finish the thought....... I'll discuss being my brother's keeper as soon as the bleeding hearts will discuss "my brother's" debt in return.

I don't like to turn anything into a political discussion, but I have to say that there are small minded idiots who support every possible political view.

IDK about the theft increase but it's a good bet that a car pulled over for speeding with something akin to "blewbyU" on it, is going to have it's driver pleading uphill.

"IM POOR"

some will understand it some wont. The people who hated on it before I bought it will eat my plate up

I was going down the interstate just over the speed limit a couple of months ago when a red 'vette blew by with the license plate OH SO RED. About ten seconds later a car with oh so red (and blue) lights came screaming up behind him. I guess they were friends because they both pulled over and had a nice conversation.

Maybe PRTCT&SV for your tag!!!

My apologies for jumping to a wrong conclusion about a comment made.
I must admit I spend too much time on a couple of politically centered sites and am a bit quick to jump to the defense of my statements.
I will try very hard to keep politics out of this car oriented site and just keep to the subject at hand - having a blast with our great cars.

Sorry, blue.
