Is it morally acceptable for TV News Broadcasters to air graphic violence, such as police shootings, car chases, and so on, on live TV? Why or why not?
Answer
News is an entertainment business, not an information business. They want viewers, pure and simple. If shock sells to the sponsors then that's what they will show. They just need to stay as credible as it takes to keep viewers. THe rest is up for grabs. Don't believe anything you read and about half of what you see. The odd thing... I am an optimist...lol

Answer
First of all, I live in Colorado and I've worked in the car business here for years. I can tell you that you don't owe any back taxes on the previous owner's expired plates. Those aren't YOUR plates, so it's not YOUR problem. That might be true in other places, but not here.
Second of all, you really should title the car yourself before you try and sell it. The good news is that you don't actually have to register the car to title it - you can title it for about $15 + whatever sales tax you owe. That shouldn't be more than a couple hundred dollars (hopefully much less). No big deal that way and you're 100% legal.
While you're titling your car, you can request a temporary tag too. I think they'll give you a 30 day temp for $2.50. That gives you a month to sell it without having to pay registration (might be a little different where you're at, but that's how it is in the Denver metro).
Pawning your car isn't a good idea. They won't give you much and it never really works out in the consumer's favor.
Craigslist is easily the best place to sell this car of yours. I would suggest you list it immediately. Put up some photos and get it listed. Make sure your ad says "cash only" and sell it to anyone with a reasonable offer.
Finally, as for insurance, again the info you've been given isn't 100% correct. If the person test driving your car has insurance, the car is covered. Insurance (in Colorado at least) follows both the insured driver and the car. That's why Colorado residents should never buy rental car insurance. Every CO resident is already covered by their personal policy.
Just make sure whoever test drives your car has insurance. Ask to see proof of insurance (not to mention a driver's license). You probably want to hold some collateral too.
