"A plate referring to the Hiroshima bombing in 1945 was blocked from being made.

Message plates allow smaller lines of text to be written above and below the central word, so the plate would have read 'The Big Bang Theory ENOLA Gay'."

That's offensive?

I guess they might not like my white riot idea for a plate

I guess its offensive to the majority of Auckland, but that would be about it?

This part is incorrect..'Enola Gay was the name of the plane that dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima'

Should be...dropped the bomb above Hiroshima.
The bomb exploded above the city not on the city...

Hairs? what hairs?

I see that REGGIN is available.
I'm sure there are more but no doubt they do human screens before one is approved.
That aside, $900 for a fucking custom plate? No wonder these money-grubbing bastards have so many fucking lamedick adverts of the radio.

Yeah, I especially like how a replacement for your normal plate costs about $16. They must be creaming it!!

Can make sense for a business though.
