    Default ICUHAJI "I see you, Haji."

    I thought you guys would get a laugh out of this.

    They were seven letters on the license plates: ICUHAJI.
    Phonetically, it could be read, "I see you, Haji."
    To the Department of Motor Vehicles, the message was considered offensive to Arab Americans and grounds for the tags' revocation.
    But to a former sergeant in the U.S. Army, the plates sent a message of support for the soldiers who served with him during two tours in Iraq.
    Sean Bujno of Chesapeake, who was honorably discharged in 2009, is appealing last month's decision by the DMV to revoke his plates. In Circuit Court documents, he contends that DMV Commissioner Richard Holcomb violated his free-speech rights and his 14th Amendment right to due process.
    "The government can't be charged with deciding what we can and cannot say," said Andrew D. Meyer, Bujno's attorney. "There are going to be people who don't like a certain message, but that is why there is the First Amendment."

    Meh... The plates are owned by the state, right? I don't think his free speech is violated, unless they won't let him put a bumper sticker on that says the same thing.

    so get new plates, then get bumper stickers that look like the old plates, along with another that says "FU MVD"

    Man many many cases like this, and almost always the licensee wins after it goes to court. The only time they (the state) can revoke is for things not covered under the 1st amendment - like hate speech and patently offensive terms.
    What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

    Lol, haji is arabic for a man that's completed the Hajj, his trip to meca. Is like saying "Sir".
    Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be.

    Anyone that thinks war is good is ignorant. Anyone that thinks war isn't needed is stupid.

    Girlscouts? Hmmm, I don't know... I think it's kinda dangerous to teach young girls self esteem and leadership skills.
