This is a news story taken from the AP wire when I was looking around. I had to post it it was just classic! ROFL she says she got it to honor and old friend....Just classic.
Quote: Virginia woman says “STFU” license tag was to honor late friend
DECEMBER 11–The way Kirsten Norman tells it, the vanity license plates on her Volkswagen Jetta were meant as a tribute to a friend who died from cancer. The Commonwealth of Virginia, however, had a different interpretation of “STFU-PLS.”
Acting on a September e-mail complaint that the acronym stood for “Shut The **** Up Please,” the Department of Motor Vehicles quickly recalled the plates, sending Norman a letter noting that the tags were “issued in error” and no longer valid. Along with the correspondence, DMV officials sent Norman new plates (the less distinctive “KDA 347″  and asked her to return the personalized plates in a self-addressed envelope they provided.
Norman responded with an amusing October letter in which she explained the supposedly true meaning of “STFU-PLS”. Norman noted that she would not allow the state to “tell me what I can and cannot say on my license plates because of what you THINK it means. This goes against my first amendment rights.” Additionally, in an e-mail to TSG, Norman added, “God the American Government sucks. Freedom of speech my ass.”

I wonder what the legal routes would be for this lady. After all the plate was issued by the state, an I dont know about where ya'll live, but here in Pa, our tags are still "Property of the state" even though they are attached to our car/motocycles ect.. I think i would make for an interesting lawsuit, based on the fact, that now it appears if someone "thinks" something means another thing, they can take it away. Makes ya wonder...... For example, if you claim your neighbor is a drug dealer, but have no hard proof, does that mean that they get all their property taken from them, just cause you "thought" they were something, that they are not? (ie: Eminent Domain)

You make a great point my friend. I just don't understand why you can do something based on what people "thinK" it means. It is just so retarded. The problem is im pretty sure in Every state your Plates are property of the State in which you live. So im sure there is not much you can do.
It is very weird though because I see plates that are about peoples drinking habits and all sorts of stuff and they let that go...
