I believe the courts will consider it with AND being the operative word. It is not OR. It can be cruel if it is usual, which is why we still allow electric chair executions. It can be unusual if it is not cruel (how else can we justify to test out new methods?).

That's why most dealers now use the plastic license plate frames for ID tag.

Feel free to take it off yourself (or put someone else's on)....

Reminds me of Cowboy Bebop looking for a Betamax.
