All words or letter sequences that contain N or G or R are now deemed racist a priori. The National Geospacial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) had better be careful too...

I’ll bet when he got that letter he felt like pouring a jigger and dancing a jig.

“R” stands for rope! This letter must be banned as well.

One day my boss came to work in a different car than usual.
I noticed the licence tag read “DIPPY”. I asked him why that tag and he replied it was his wife’s car and the state would not allow “DIPS—T”.

It took me quite a while to understand how that plate could have been offensive. I guess I just don’t think that way. Or look for that sort of thing. Or are freakin’ obsessesed about it, just waiting to be offended by the slightest thing.

Social Worker friend of mine wanted the plate SW4HIRE
It was turned down because someone at the State Level
thought it meant Smith and Wesson for Hire.

Sounds like someone needs to get a life rather that turning over rocks trying to find racism? *eyeroll*
To: earlJam
on and off the field and I look to you as a hero, Here's where he made his mistake, apologizing for something he didn't do.
Also, where is the appeal process on personalized plates? Is there none in his state? One person can complain, without any proof at all, and get your plate pulled? No questions asked of the owner of the plate as to what it means, just pull the plate 'cause a person of color was offended by a nonsense word that she had no clue as to what it meant.
America is in sore need of being taken back from the fickin' freedom destroying liberals.

There is a private plane with the number N1553R that some claim is that N word. I don't know if it is urban legend photoshopped or the truth. I got the picture in an email a couple of years ago. Apparently, the plane is in California.

I used to think the same way, until I rode a buddy's 80 cubic inch Superglide.
That should have only made it worse.

I remember a Texas plate HMFIC2. Most Army veterans will quickly translate this (could have a racial slant) but why Number 2?

Have to agree with Richard here. Took me 5 minutes to figure out it was “bad”..

The owner of N1553R lives in Hilo, Hi. It took me a while though, to see what some suspicious people could complain about.

Tiffany Gilmore filed the complaint last month. Gilmore, who is black, believed the plate encouraged racism toward blacks. What's on her license plate, H8 YT ?
