Too Many Jackasses In Nevada

Nevada man sues DMV over rejection of 'GOPALIN' license plate

By Jackie Valley (contact)

A Nevada man has filed a lawsuit against the state's Department of Motor Vehicles alleging his rights were violated when he says the state denied his requests for personalized license plates with conservative political themes.

James Linlor, a Douglas County resident, filed the complaint July 15 in U.S. District Court in Nevada. A state official said the plate eventually was issued late last year.

The complaint alleges Linlor requested a personalized license plate of "GOPALIN" in 2009 and 2010, but the DMV denied his applications, stating the request was "vulgar or obscene or expressing superiority of political affiliation."

Linlor says he tried again in June 2010 — this time requesting "PALIN," "PALIN12" or "PALIN16." The DMV's Special Plates Committee, which reviews applications, again denied his requests, deeming them inappropriate because they were "political," according to the complaint.

According to the Nevada Administrative Code, the DMV rejects personalized license plates with any combination of letters, numbers or spaces that "express contempt, ridicule or superiority of ... political affiliation." It can also deny plates it deems "inappropriate."

After a hearing before an administrative law judge, the lawsuit claims the judge reversed the DMV's denial of Linlor's requests for plates with "PALIN," "PALIN12" and "PALIN16." The judge determined the DMV wasn't authorized to deny requests simply because they were "political," according to the complaint.

Despite the judge's decision, the complaint alleges the DMV again denied Linlor's request for a "GOPALIN" plate. Meanwhile, Linlor discovered the DMV had issued other politics-related license plates, including "GOGREEN," "DMOCRAT," "AL GORE," "KERRY," "EDWARDS," "DEAN," "HILLARY" and "RONPAUL," while rejecting requests for "REPBLCN" and "BUSH," the complaint alleges.

When Linlor applied for a "GO OBAMA" plate, the DMV approved it, he alleges.

"The actions of the DMV in selectively granting some 'political' license plate requests while denying others are unconstitutional on grounds of content and viewpoint discrimination, and should be enjoined as a violation of the First and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution," according to the complaint.

Bruce Breslow, director of the Nevada DMV, said Monday he's not sure why Linlor brought a lawsuit this month because the "GOPALIN" plate was issued Dec. 30, 2010.

The DMV, however, is reviewing its policy about personalized license plates and likely will have the director or a deputy director make decisions about whether to approve such requests in the future, he said.

"I would not have denied it," Breslow said, referring to the "GOPALIN" plate.

The complaint seeks injunctive relief from the DMV as well as the cost of attorneys' fees.

The Old Path

This is a good read, but sending it to you more because when I saw the first picture I knew you had to see it. Enjoy.....

This is good.

I wish the old paths were before us instead of behind us.

I believe they are. Just a ways ahead.

THE OLD PATHS

I liked the old paths,

when moms were at home.
Dads were at work.
Brothers went into the army.
And sisters got married BEFORE having children!

Crime did not pay;
Hard work did;
And people knew the difference.

Moms could cook;
Dads would work;
Children would behave.

Husbands were loving;
Wives were supportive;
And children were polite.

Women wore the jewelry;
And Men wore the pants.

Women looked like ladies;
Men looked like gentlemen;
And children looked decent.

People loved the truth,
and hated a lie.

They came to church to get IN,
not to get OUT!

Hymns sounded GODLY;
Sermons sounded helpful;
Rejoicing sounded normal;
And crying sounded sincere.

Cursing was wicked;
Drugs were for illness.

The flag was honored;
America was beautiful;
And GOD was welcome!

We read the Bible in public;
Prayed in school;
And preached from house to house.

To be called an American was worth dying for;
To be called an American was worth living for;
To be called a traitor was a shame!

I still like the old paths the best!

'The Old Paths' was written by a retired minister who lives in Tennessee.
