Search youtube for "sovereign citizen". There are thousands out there who are obsessed with license plate issues, people who believe they can issue their own plates because "government" doesn't really exist or that all plates need to be signed with quill and ink. These people will latch onto any old ritual or tradition to justify their warped views.
- Angostura 3y agoYes, but you are trying to connect a largely US-centred type of nuttery with an ancient UK ritual.
- TeMPOraL 3y agoIndeed, you could consider the freemen/sovereign citizen thing to be an ancient US ritual (for definitions of "ancient" applicable to the US).
- compiler-guy 3y agoThe ceremony itself is over 400 years old and its current form is about 170 years old. If there are issue with it as you describe, it shouldn’t be too hard to link to a news story about one.
- _dain_ 3y agoWe don't have license plates. We have number plates.
