I predict “why is there so much crime” will become a common question
If the police can't stop you for registration tags, why pay them at all?
And it never even enters the mind of the LA city council that this happens because black and latino drivers are more likely to have such conditions on their cars. This is blatant, in your face "disparate impact" theoretical reasoning, and it is patently BULLSHIT.
The highway patrol enforces registration not local police.
Anarcho-tyranny is the final form of disparate impact theory.
In an ideal society, pigs would he living 6 feet under the ground. But thanks to niggers, and gun bans we can't just slime the criminals and be done with it.
In an ideal society we simply wouldn't need cops.
On May 6, 2026, the Los Angeles City Council voted unanimously (14-0) to restrict pretextual traffic stops, which have been criticized for causing racial disparities in enforcement. The council directed the Board of Police Commissioners to adopt new guidelines that prohibit LAPD officers from stopping motorists, bicyclists, or pedestrians for minor equipment violations unless there is a significant and imminent safety risk.
Key details of the motion include:
Scope of Restriction: The policy targets stops based on minor infractions like broken taillights or expired registration, aiming to end the practice of using these as a pretext for broader criminal investigations.
Data Context: A report covering April 2022 to September 2025 found that 86% of people stopped in pretextual encounters were perceived by officers as Black or Latino.
LAPD Response: LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell has defended the stops as an essential tool against guns, gangs, and drugs, arguing that they help address reckless driving which contributes to high traffic fatalities.
Current Status: The City Council vote does not immediately change LAPD policy; the Board of Police Commissioners must now formally adopt the new regulations.

"If we stop the ability for crime to be illegal, criminals won't be criminals. Everyone wins!"
Good.
The 1:10,000 chance that they happen to accidentally catch a kidnapper does not justify the other 9,999 instances of road piracy.
The fine assigned to my last ticket was $30, the total to pay it online with the "court costs" amd random fees was $225.
In Germany, if you got caught speeding by a traffic cam (getting stopped randomly by police wasn't really a thing) you got a ticket in the mail for $25 or so total, and that was the end of it. No fishing expedition, no detainment, no illegal search, just a minor fine for breaking a minor rule.
They're barely arresting anyone as it is. The Bay Bridge was completely occupied by a Mad Max raider gang the other night and they only arrested seven out of about a hundred. When given more freedom, these groups don't back off, they go full African warlord.
This is a good thing. Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
