You want to throw on the back pack, get the dog and start hoofing it across the country? By all means, travel all you wish.
The bill of rights was written before automobiles, or could they have imagined what it would become.
If you've ever driven in some place with lax regulations and enforcement, I guarantee you'll come back and appreciate what's here.

For of those that ain't ghetto. A paper plate is what you use on the toll road. Red light cameras and plate readers.
Here's how this is gonna go. Paper plates are banned and plate readers are going to flourish. The fine city of Killeen has put out the money for a plate reader contract. Good news if your car is stolen. Extremely bad news if you're just trying to keep up with rent.
If you have any heart, what so ever, in the bill of rights. #4 says there shouldn't be any kind of plate in the first place. You’re a sovereign citizen…? That would explain a lot.

Stamped metal plates, or the cheap flat plates with a vinyl sticker on them?

I guess I am failing to understand how this actually fixes anything? It means you can't go to the UPS store and print one out.....or a pile. Then walking out to your ride and freshening up the 3 month paper they've been running. It's actually kinda bad for the economy. Paper, ink, and the screwdriver industry is going to suffer. Nope, you just walk to the nearest parking lot, unscrew a plate, unscrew another plate, insert first plate on second car. Leave with a plate somebody probably won't notice is missing for weeks/months.

Will you still get paper tags when you buy a new car for a month or so? We bought a Toyota last month and had our metal ones in 10 days. others have their metal ones too but continue to do the paper tags

.....Privacy isn't a radical thought. You have zero expectation of privacy in public. Zero. I can stand on a sidewalk and film inside banks, schools, military installations, etc. Everywhere you go you are on camera. I personally don’t like all the cameras but I realize they are there.

I worked loss prevention and the parking lot camera, we would focus on paper plates. High probability for theft or grab and run. Police could care less about enforcing it. Seat belt another story. It was frustrating. I'm sure now they'll just start stealing plates.

I read that paper tags are gone and metal plates are in. But you can bet you there will be some arsehat who will figure out how to forge the window stickers.
