What Policy Does This Violate?

Because I have no problem with license plates reading GETOSAMA.

Retired New York City police officer Arno Herwerth hit a major roadblock this week when he tried to dress up his ride in patriotic style.

Arno, a 21- year veteran of the NYPD, wanted to add vanity license plates reading "GETOSAMA" to the 1993 Ford Aerostar he had already hand-painted red, white and blue. But New York's DMV red-lighted the anti-Usama bin Laden plates, banning them under an agency regulation that prohibits anything "obscene, lewd, lascivious, derogatory to a particular ethnic or other group or patently offensive."

Obscene? No.

Lewd? No.

Lascivious? Again, no.

Defamatory to an ethnic group? Well, only to Terrorist-Americans – and they are not an ethnic group.

Patently offensive? Only if you love terrorists and support the 9/11 attack.

Give the man his license plates and registration – and quit being politically incorrect weenies.
