Texas DMV says Houston man's license plate is offensive

HOUSTON -

The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles is revoking the personalized license plate issued to a Houston man, because it has now been deemed offensive.

“I had it for more than three years without any problem,” Safer Hassan said.

Hassan recently received an official letter from the state that said his Texas plate, “370H55V,” would be canceled within 30 days.

“People have no idea what that plate means. My closest friends don’t even know,” Hassan said.

It is when the license plate is turned upside down that a curse word becomes more evident.

The Texas DMV letter alludes to a similar plate that was recently reviewed and rejected.

“They may have just searched similar type plates,” Hassan theorized.

Hassan said he planned to appeal the state’s decision.​

Someone at the DMV is getting a promotion, and the car owner probably gets a job offer from the DMV.
Driving a car like that though, he probably doesn’t need the job.

Ridiculous. All day long we’re bombarded with disgusting sitcoms about homosexuality with nasty language on so-called “family channels”. And a stupid license plate is getting people’s panties in a wad? Gimme a break.

It would be even funnier if he rolled his Lamborghini.

The plate I wanted.

I checked on it one time and it was available, but now it isn't. So either someone else in Ohio got it or the state took it off the list.

Could a proctologist not get one with SFINCTR on it?

Patrick McGoohan's car in the intro to The Prisoner. Can't just get "6" as a license plate either.

Someone I respect wrote this;

I’m damn sure not impressed by many quotes. The one I buy is-”For those of us who have fought for it- freedom has a special flavor that the protected will never know.” If you are male and have not served and were fit and this country had a war going on when you were 19-24 perhaps you should ask yourself why?

What made America and still makes it is a combination of the Constitution and Christianity plus brave men willing to fight for freedom. . Without a church and Sunday schools to teach them the Lord’s word and His laws kids are lost. Without both fathers and mothers almost all kids are someway dependent on Government. Teen boys without a father usually end up problems. Few women can raise 14-15 year old and older boys anymore then most men can raise a teenage daughter by themselves. Without religion and fathers the family is dependent on Government and the Progressive way of life destroys the family just as it is destroying America more and more everyday it is in power. This Affirmative Action president is a damn joke. He is no more a real American then those who illegally sneak across our border. Obama is a traitor. He has divided this nation by pitting classes and race against each other. This country is divided with this ass. Until this country gets back to it's heritage and realizes our founding fathers were anti Muslim and anti anyone coming here uninvited we are in trouble. Military service should be every man's duty for a few years period. It is damn sick to have women taking men's MOS's in the military. I look back and I thank the Lord for letting us get into LZ's without getting ambushed as soon as the choppers set down. I thank the Montagnards for their loyalty and always being alert in combat. I think about the many men I lost plus our unit did in 68-69. Rest in Peace.

Oh! I thought it was supposed to be pronounceable, like “ME2I812” or something.
