License Plate

Plus, it saves me ammunition.

Saw .308 at a recent gun show for $1 a round. Think we'll be missing the machinegun shoot this July 4th so no worries about our tag getting photographed there with all the other heavy-metal hoodlums! LOL!

I understand that masking your reg-plate on the internet is prudent to prevent car cloning. If a car was the same color, make and model as your own then any offenses committed by it's owner would come to you. Run a read light, photographed speeding, you would be hard pressed to convince the authorities that it wasn't you.

Just a thoughts.

Yeah, it's a paranoia thing...

Its funny how paranoid people are. I can assure you there are no crimes being reported because a license plate was seen on the internet. Even if there was a dirty cop who ran the tag and found out where you lived, what does he do now? Kinda like a dog that chases a car...if he catches it what does he do with it. The so called dirty cop now knows where you live...so why would he care? What crime is now possible as a result of the information.

Attention everyone!!!! I just saw a vehicle with the license plate "SomeBeach" just abduct a small child. Everybody go get him and kick him alot in the face.


see.....you could have just gotten kicked alot in the face. Its a good thing you didnt post your license plate.

I am just saying that you have no idea what people do with wierd information. Why add to the already large amount of data people can get about you on the internet.

I am not worried about the authorities seeing my plates, just wierdos.

Trust me, if someone wants to mess with you there is plenty of "public information" legally available to make that an easy task without needing your plate#.

This post will give you an idea of what is possible on the net with next to nothing to go by (an IP address). Of course this guy was an idiot and got his justice. Good reading...long but entertaining. Some have probably seen it before.

Oh I see...and the only way this weirdo would get a tag number is looking at the internet??? This weirdo don't notice tags of vehicles going down the street? And reporting a crime was just committed by the operator of this vehicle...where is the victim. And weirdo is so talented he can pick a crime and a suspect at a time the suspect has unaccounted for time. And on and on. Trust me, if a weirdo wanted to do something bad to you its much easier to follow you home then pick a tag off the internet, find a way to run it, travel to your house and pick out a crime to try out. Your tag don't entice the criminal.

Scott (Moncha), please weigh in on this. Am sure your opinion as a law enforcement officer can put many of our minds at rest on the matter. Personally, I am not afraid of big brother,..... I think, but then I am 61 and won't be around that many more years to put up with that ****!

I don't mean to say that, that is the ONLY way someone could get ahold of my information. I guess I am just a paranoid person and like to keep as much information to myself as possible.
