D.C. License Scanners

"Security officials to scan D.C. area license plates

Homeland security officials in the Washington area plan to dramatically expand the use of automated license plate readers to prevent possible terrorist attacks.

Officials from Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia have agreed to install 200 license plate readers on police vehicles, at airports and along roads. The plan announced Friday will be funded by federal homeland security grants for the area.

The readers will scan every license plate that passes by and will run the numbers through federal criminal and terrorist databases."

"This is not about preventing terrorist attacks but simply keeping tabs on where politically incorrect people go.

The fact is that terrorists know how to swap a license plate on whatever vehicle they are using for an attack. Or they can simply steal a bus or truck to load up with explosives. Or they can rent a truck.

So this license system isn't about stopping terror; but simply keeping an eye on YOU!
