I saw a South Carolina license tag today and it had a cresent on the tag. Is this catering to muslims? See the images below.

I'm from North Carolina but was stationed in Charleston for a time in the Navy.

As I remember the association of the crescent and palmetto with South Carolina predate the Republic.

Somebody point this guy toward the Shanksville 9/11 memorial and let him deal with something real.

[Fiddlstix]

Oh Heck! My fault. I was thinking you are in South Carolina.
(Your screen name, I guess. Also you are rather famous as the broken glass Republican)
I thought a person from South Carolina would find this kind of humorous.
That flag has had the crescent on it as far back as I remember.

Dude 1 Is that the moon?

Dude 2 I don't know. I'm not from around here.

Oh, I think he’ll be keeping that one to himself.

[Slings and Arrows]

They lied.

In 1775, Col. William Moultrie designed a flag for his South Carolina militia.It was a blue flag that matched the color of his troops uniforms and a crescent that reproduced the silver emblem worn on the front of their caps.

Hm, "William Moultrie" sounds suspiciously Muslim to me.

Did one of them create the Colorado flag as well?

I needed this thread tonight, after the Kennedy nauseating “lets pretend we are back in Camelot” funeral..every once in awhile I would turn on the Tv.
i felt like my TV and fox had been abducted by aleins...THERE WAS THE FUNERAL....its alive!!!

Ha. Hey, we don’t need no steeeenking crescent!

[visualops]

LOL Jiminy crickets don’t make yourself look like an idiot!

[Lonely Bull]

You sure it’s NOT a sunrise?

If it's meant to be, the moon's pointing the wrong way for South Carolina.

[cyborg]

LOL!!! This thread is great stuff.

My husband said they are doing away with it, is this true?

I don't think so as I've seen this design in the new plates.

LOLOLOL, “Clueless!”

I look forward to keeping up with what’s going on in SC, one of the states that I dearly love. Thanks.

I’m grateful that my Digital Converter Box decided to break last week... I haven’t seen (or should that be I haven’t missed) a thing! :)

have this plate as well. My husband said they are doing away with it, is this true?

I heard the same thing but I believe that was their idea when they came up with the new sunset ones, they were going to make us all switch. I just got these plates this year. I think folks complained and that's why they havent' done away with them.

btw, great FR name!

[snippy_about_it]

That’s my plate.

Best looking one we have.

[Infidel Heather]

Thank you! :)

Great news that they still have it available. I LOVE living here, though I miss Florida where I am originally from.

[snippy_about_it]

I miss Georgia. :-(

[Infidel Heather]

Awww, I’m sorry. :(
