Hitler taken down by the DMV:

Call me naive, but I would never have seen that in that license plate...

The owner of a Ford truck bearing the license plate 14CV88 will have to find a new message after the DMV on Wednesday canceled its earlier approval of that series of letters and numbers.
.................
A few hours later, the DMV agreed that the plate contains a coded message: The number 88 stands for the eighth letter of the alphabet, H, doubled to signify "Heil Hitler," said CAIR's Ibrahim Hooper. "CV" stands for "Confederate veteran" -- the plate was a special model embossed with a Confederate flag, which Virginia makes available for a $10 fee to card-carrying members of the Sons of Confederate Veterans. And 14 is code for imprisoned white supremacist David Lane's 14-word motto: "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children."

And you are not the intended audience for this popular neo-nazi numbers game.
 
Not a white supremacist, but saw it.

edit: Except the CV part. Anytime I see 14 and 88 together I cringe.
 
Wow. It's a big world out there -- much of it completely irrelevant.
 
After awhile even the best joke stops being funny. I thought the movie (Downfall) was really good, too.

And the folks here in the SEA RCC are probably wondering what is wrong with me.

Scott, that is funny. Sick, but funny.
 
One has to be able to separate Hitler, the personification of evil, from Hitler, the ludicrous persona.

It shouldn't be that hard.

It is for some.
