It is LIT today in Alabama and I mean LIT AF over this ‘FKYALL’ license plate controversy that has erupted between the license bureau and a society that wants to know why some redneck can’t drive around in his Blazer (or whatever that is) with that plate. You want to see LIT, go on the AL.com Facebook page and dive into those comments. LIT AF!
Here’s what I want to know: When did snowflakes take over Alabama? Here I thought Alabama was the last place on earth where you could be a redneck in peace. I guess not.
From AL.com:
After either approving the wording or letting it slip through the cracks, the Alabama Department of Revenue has sent the vehicle’s Madison County owner a letter. The letter dated July 24 says, “This message has been rejected for display … deemed offensive to the general public.”
The Madison County License Department showed a reporter its copy of the state’s rejection letter with the owner’s name removed. The letter arrived in the office in Huntsville today.
The tag is one of many specialty Alabama tags supporting organizations including universities and colleges and, in this case, the Sons of Confederate Veterans. The special tags cost $50 extra, which goes to the sponsoring organization.
This is Vernon Barnett, Alabama Department of Revenue commish. He was appointed by governor Kay Ivey, who has been praised by Trump in the past so I assume Vernon isn’t some snowflake. He went to law school at Bama so I assume he doesn’t have a snowflake bone in his body.
I’m begging Vernon to stop this nonsense recall and let ‘FKYALL’ to stay on the streets. It’s like an error card. It gets out, that’s on you. You can’t go making judgements after the fact. Plus, who in Alabama really finds that plate offensive? This state can’t be that soft, can it?
Make sure you head over to Facebook to see the circus that this has caused. Dive into those comments.
