Every State has a system of vanity plates accompanied by "Censorship Committees.

A recent instance was in Vermont where a woman applied for a vanity plate reading "Irish." It was turned down as it was determined that it could offend some people. I think the person was going to appeal the ruling but I've not heard anything since.

Another famous one in Viginia happened about 10 years ago. A fellow in the Leesburg area had GOVT SUX on his plate. A couple of County bureaucrats complained to the state when he paid his Personal Property Taxes with small change (This fact came out in discovery during the trial). He fought the State and kept his plates.
