I would love to read an article where someone mocked up a copy of the judge's license plate over their's and ran the red light hundreds of times (safely, at night, with no one around).

1. I was taken aback by that comment when I first red it. I think the government should investigate people who make death threats against agents, even though those agents are corrupt.
