It's not about whether you think having a name on a license plate is a big deal or not, it's the fact that it has reached a point now where someone's own name was actually removed off of something of his because someone was apparently triggered by it and complained apparently which is truly pathetic, and the fact that people give into shit like that only makes those people feel like they can remove or censor anything if they complain enough. 

First they came for our license plates, and I said nothing.

Personally I think it is silly that they disallowed this. But legally I don't see anything wrong with it.

Sounding the PC alarm over this issue is the silliest thing of all though IMO.

@ bolded: I don't really know how to respond to that part since I can't tell what you're trying to say lol. 

Plus I never said it was political correctness, just that it's dumb as fuck that shit like this is even happening since it does just look like yet again more "someone complains to try to get something removed, person they complained to gives in, therefore making said person who complained feel accomplished to try it again with whatever they feel they wanna try to say they're 'offended' over" type of thing that seems to be happening a lot lately. (Though perhaps what you mean is  what I described makes it seem like i'm saying it's political correctness).  I also wouldn't say that anyone should sound any sort of "alarm" over this, but it just sends a horrible message that looks like not even a name that someone was born with is safe anymore if someone finds a way to try to say they're offended by it.
