I mean we all know Kramer was the "ASSMAN" and that was cool, so what could be so much worse that the government has to get involved this time?

Ok, now for the reason for this story...

Nevada has really outlawed a license plate:

"GOBK2CA"

This is hilarious.

Per KRON4.com:

The plate — which reads “GOBK2CA,” short for “Go back to California” — was recalled by the state Department of Motor Vehicles in May after it received a complaint, KOLO-TV first reported. Now the vehicle owner is appealing the recall and will have a hearing on Wednesday, according to the Reno-area news station.

A section of the Nevada Administrative Code applied to the recall prohibits defamatory references to a person or group.

“In this case, the defamed group is Californians,” DMV spokesperson Eli Rohl told the Las Vegas Review-Journal. He added that the department “regularly” turns down license plates that share the same message. (Link to full article)

So Nevada is outlawing it, will Utah be next??
