File this in the "What were they Thinking?" file.

[metmom]

People are way to easily offended and I do not appreciate the snowflakes holding the rest of the world hostage to their delicate sensibilities.

[Pelham]

License Plate Oppression.

Everybody wants to be a victim.

[Buckeye McFrog]

No one was thinking. The dies were just spitting out numbers in alphabetical order like they were supposed to.

JAN 0132
JAO 0132
JAP 0132...

The Wakatsukis wake up early the first morning in Manzanar covered in gray dust that has blown through the knotholes in the walls and floor. They have used their clothes as bedding for extra warmth, and nearly everything they own has been soiled. Jeanne and Kiyo find their predicament funny, but Mama does not. Woody calls through the wall, jokingly asking if they have fallen into the same flour barrel as him. Kiyo replies that they have not, joking that theirs is “full of Japs.”

Spark Notes: Farewell to Manzanar, Chapter 3

[Red Badger]

I guess Jewish American Princess is a no go....................

[SMGFan]

“JIP” is a stereotype

“JOB” might scare some people.

[just me]

Do people just drive around looking for something to be offended about??

[higgmeister]

Are they going to do it with all the permutations with HEB?

[FrdmLvr]

JAP is my initials and my email address. I resent the fact that Kansas is referring to my initials as a racial slur, and I demand they not recall the liscence plates.

[V_TWIN]

Just
A
Plate

good gosh

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Next up will be letter combinations like NIP, WOP and MIC.

[buffyt]

Awe, come on now! What ever happened to sticks and stones can break my bones but words can never hurt me? Sheesh!

[Starstruck]

I have a Kansas plate with “LEG” followed by 3 digits. I wonder if some handicapped people will be offended. BTW, its not personalized.

[Oldeconomybuyer]

Note, KS plates follow an "123 ABC" standard. For example, a KS plate may be "666 JEW".

[IronJack]

They can replace the license plates with pictures of snowflakes.

[Freestate316]

There must be a chunk in the system that allows these plate numbers to slip through. I’m sure that the Kansas DMV will nip this in the bud.

[dainbramaged]

I’m about as sensitive as a volcano, but if I was an American of Japanese descent it would be an insult. Sounds like a computer programming error at the DMV.

[Fiddlstix]

Geeez! And here I always thought JAP meant ‘Jewish American Princess’.

[meatloaf]

None of the civilian Americans imprisoned in Japanese concentration camps in the Philippines were ever compensated for their suffering. Screw the Japs.

[Verginius Rufus]

Barbara Johnson probably still gets made fun of for her Japanese-sounding surname, Johnson.
