It's interesting that you'll often see a vehicle that is a moving billboard for the owner of the car when they cover it with bumper stickers and top it off with a license plate that makes a statement. I don't really feel like I need to advertise what I think as I drive down the road. Now that I think about what chielgirl said I think she's probably right because someone is bound to file some sort of a law suit against this idea and probably win.

There were gasps of astonishment when I put a Darwin fish on the back of my motorcycle: "You sure want to have that bike vandalized don't you!"
In all the years I've been riding, I only had one protest and that was foreseen: I stopped at a gas station in Arkansas where the guy had a neon cross blazing in his window. If I hadn't been running on fumes at that point, I would have continued down the road. However, I was looking forward to his reaction with a little amusement and wasn't disappointed. As he shoved my change across the counter, he also tried to hand me some religious tracts and grunted "here, I think you better read these."

Oh, that's a good one!
Geez... I should have thought of this sooner.... how about :
"ATHEIST"
All joking aside, I don't think I'd ever put a bumper sticker or vanity plate on my vehicle for any particular cause or idea. It just singles you out.
However, it is fun to think of vanity plates

Thats how I feel, I don't want my car to stand out like that, its too easy to key someones car because you disagree with what is on their license plate or bumper sticker.

I've heard its a really big problem on the southern states. Atheists or even Christians who have the Darwin fish find that their symbols have been stolen or their cars ransacked. More worryingly are with the Wiccans who can even find their cars have been doused and set on fire or who had their breaks tampered simply because some self-righteous [woman's hygienic device]-bag thinks that Wicca means you worship satan

I'm all for free speech, I have a friend who used to have the Darwin fish on her car but given the narrowmindedness of some people I don't want the trouble.
The people I'm speaking about think there is ONLY one way to live your life and it must be THEIR way. AND they aren't shy about doing something destructive to your car.
I can see if your a biker dude, that might not be as much of a problem.

My mom has a gefilte fish on her car which she sometimes parks in the driveway. The only negative effect is that we've gotten about 10 "Passion of the Christ" DVDs in our mailbox over the past few years. :P
I'd think the residents of Boca would be wanting a Jewish pride tag.

Would their Jesus really want them to be advertising that way? Isn't there something about pride and deadly sins, etc. involved.
Something I don't get is what christians would do if their god really came her and saw what they do in his name.

OH I'm sure they think they are passing along the word of god, sharing their testimony or some such thing by posting it on their license plate. OR maybe they think that when jesus comes back to earth he will know them by their license plates.
