It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Unless there's a way to verify authenticity, which would require central registration of some sort (good luck with that), such a card would be easily faked. It'd impact legit owners more than actual thieves, since many people would probably lose theirs at some point.
Central registration exists already. The two big ones are Project 529 and Bike Index. I highly recommend them. Bike theft is down in Vancouver even while ridership has skyrocketed.
You might be right, but bike theft is rampant and needs to be stopped. Especially as we are looking to get over climate problems.
Why can't they be locked or chained?
Those only delay theft by dozen or so minutes. Most people don't have garage to leave they bikes in.
