Newfangled crap! Mine proudly bears the "Veterans of the Teutoburg Forest!" plate. It doesn't endear me to the proprietor of the Gelateria "Roma", but there's always someone who got his fee-fees hurt...

Is Cooter the one in the red shirt? I managed to miss all iterations of the Dukes of WTF.

Emperor Theodosius II.? Oh, 150 years ago, you say, not 1500? My bad...

That license plate reminds me of an old joke I heard in Tennessee. Or maybe it was Texas.

What do you call a Texas redneck with no arms and legs after you throw 'em in the lake?

Everyone knows Washington had a Bob Marley license plate because he loved hemp!

"Sons of the Great Mongol Horde", "Sons of Atilla the Hun", "Sons of Hannibal of Carthage" would all be less offensive on a license plate than this nonsense.

Jones wasn't a dreadful rep (unlike the gang now), but he is just as caught up in this CSA stuff as the others. There was a sentimental notion of the Civil War peddled in the south for years (only marginally related to the actual war, its causes and aftermath); he no doubt grew up in it. Fewer people believe that stuff now and even fewer will in the future. So no doubt, the Sons of Confederate Veterans feel they are being "persecuted".

I am right there with you. We should, however, allow them to proudly display the white flag of the Confederacy.

I would like to see a revival of the 'Dukes of Hazzard', but with a twist; it would be called 'The Dupes of Hazzard" and would be hilarious true-to-life adventures of a couple of dumbfuck good ole boys with their low IQ resentment of nearly everything and their adventures in trying to score enough drugs to dull the pain of being themselves. It would be great.

Just give them the damn license plates. It'll make it easier for law enforcement to profile 'em.

Ditto. Shiloh to The Wilderness. Absolutely decimated my family. Slave owners went home after 60 days, though.
