Nye said he was "heartbroken and sickened for the Commonwealth of Kentucky"

Duh. Bill. What did you think this was about? An actual debate?

It was a motivational stunt to get the true believers to open their wallet to fund something like this.

"voters and taxpayers in Kentucky will eventually see that this is not in their best interest."

Don't count on it.

That caused the Kentucky Tourism, Arts and Heritage Cabinet to halt its issuance of tax incentives for the ark park.

The bureaucrats, having an actual mission to accomplish have their feet at least partway on the ground. Not so the voters. I predict that withdrawl of these tax breaks will be made a serious issue come election time.

That said, let them have their amusement part. Who cares? We've got Disney World.

Cops get mad if they can't give you a parking ticket

They run the plate and get the vehicle description. If it matches, odds are its not stolen or switched plates. If it doesn't match, they boot it or tow it.

Too many cars don't have visible VINs. My truck has a vertical windshield and no dashboard. So no place to put the VIN tag there. Its on the door jamb (open the drivers door to read). And too many people throw crap up on the dashboard for cops to rely on the VIN beng visible. Take a look at most contractors' trucks.
