Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Don't actually do this. You can get your license suspended (or worse) even if you never go back to the town that gave you the ticket.

Step 1: Declare yourself a sovereign citizen

Step 2: ???

Step 3: Straight to jail?

[–] RandomVideos@programming.dev 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

In jail, you wont need to pay taxes

Taxes won't matter when you are doing slave labor.

It depends on the laws in the state/county/city. In the worst case scenario, you could serve jail time. In the best case scenario, you stay away from that town and nothing happens. In the medium case scenario, the municipality sends it to collections where you'll then be harassed and/or dinged on your credit report.

It depends on the laws in the country, I very much doubt mine are the same as yours

OK but what about that shitty mall that charges for parking and gives private parking tickets?

[–] ArbitraryValue@sh.itjust.works 12 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I didn't pay a couple of private tickets, over ten years passed, and so far I have been fine, but I'm not a lawyer...

[–] deegeese@sopuli.xyz 11 points 3 weeks ago

You inspired me to do a little research on my local shitty mall and it turns out they didn't get city permission for their little scheme, so all they can do is send you demands for payment, and if you get a bunch of fake tickets in 12 months they can threaten to tow.

Since I go there only a couple of times a year, sounds like I get free parking.

I'd only be worried if they were willing to send it to collections, that can hit your credit. Even a small thing can fuck up your credit

They don’t have your SSN. How are they going to report it?

Even if they learn the registered owner, doesn’t prove who got the “ticket” and unlike a real ticket they can’t hold it over you with the DMV.

[–] scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech 1 points 3 weeks ago

Was just calling out something to think about at least

[–] davidgro@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Interesting. What country is that?

Here (USA) I think if a mall tried that it would be suicide. They are already struggling to get enough customers against online shopping and many malls and some major retail stores are going out of business.
