1. This offensive to people who like the color pink or use it as a symbol.

It's trying to associate gays with child molesters.

2. It'll offend all the Mary Kay ladies

But it would be funny to see a pink Caddy with a pink license plate. Funny sick, not funny ha ha.

3. Hey, no fair! Pink is the signature color for Code Pink activists.

Sex offenders should have licenses that are glaring neon green.

Actually, I find this distasteful. Offenders usually commit their crimes in private settings, if I'm not mistaken.

4. At least they

won't have to worry about anyone borrowing their car.

5. They'd still have the options of not driving, renting, or borrowing cars

And why stop at sex offenders and drunk drivers? Doesn't the public have a right to know that if they're sharing the road with ANY kind of ex-felon? On the other hand, it would be a boon for cops who were falling behind on their ticket-writing quotas--they wouldn't to waste time looking for "erratic" drivers to pull over!
