so in Utah they allowed this plate -- you do have to explain your plate on the vanity plate application, and it cant be offensive -... Its really surprising actually driving around SLC at how many cars have rainbow stickers -- did you know that SLC has a very large gay and lesbian population (one of the highest per capita in the country).
State senator has a lot more on his plate than most
Thomas Burr The Salt Lake Tribune
Sen. Scott McCoy is driving home a point about his nickname, "The Gay." He's putting it on his license plate. The Salt Lake City Democrat, who is Utah's only openly gay senator, ordered a personalized license plate with his sexual orientation emblazoned on it. McCoy says he's keeping the white Ski Utah plate as a souvenir but he's not going to put it on his car.
"I think it's funny, but I don't want to reenforce that that's all I am," McCoy said Wednesday, noting he has standard plates on his vehicle now.
The term came from a Salt Lake Tribune story quoting conservative Sen. Chris Buttars' reaction to hearing that McCoy had been elected by Democrats to fill a vacant seat. "The gay?" asked a surprised Buttars, who then declined to comment. McCoy was elected by his district's Democrat delegates after former Sen. Paula Julander resigned for health reasons.
Elizabeth Solomon, who, along with the American Civil Liberties Union of Utah, fought the Utah Department of Motor Vehicles to allow the word gay on plates, said it was great that McCoy had ordered the plate.
But, she added, "he should put it on his car."
Solomon, who has a gay son and two adopted kids who are gay, has the personalized plate "GaysROK" on her car. She has offered to donate $50 to the Gay, Lesbian and Transgendered Community Center for every person who orders and displays on their vehicle a plate with the word gay. Solomon says McCoy doesn't qualify unless his car is wearing it. "He's cheating," she said.

I love my gays.
So let me get this straight (excuse the pun), Solomon has a gay son and two additional adopted kids who are also gay? ...
it would have been great to see Buttars face and reaction to "The Gay"
...
where did you see this car?
ak: that's interesting, thanks for the heads-up. don't worry, i won't tell your wife.
anon: thanks for the clarification, gays rock AND gays are ok!
princess: chalk another one onto the never ending list we share.
ak2: i'd love to see the road rage buttars would have produced. oh wait, doesn't he have a rumored gay friend? i saw the car at the wendy's downtown. i wasn't easting there, i was cutting through the parking lot to avoid a red light. just so you know!
dont be afraid to admit you eat at Wendy's.
Square Beef Patties Rock!
this belongs to a lady from Park City, as I recall... her son is gay and in a show of support she went down to get the plate, but was refused, so she sued the state to allow her to get the plate. She then announced a contest where she would pay/donate to other people who got similar "gay" plates in the state... This was in the Tribune, maybe 6 months ago? I may be a bit fuzzy on the details of the story, but I think that's the deal.
Mullets ROK.
ak: um, eww.
that one guy: our own LTB uncovered that little ditty. we heart him. yes, i'm aware of my third person speak.

These are my favorite posts. I like ramdom.
anon: what is "ramdom" exactly?
Why is a obvious liberal like this driving such a bourgeois car. I would be so much more impressed if it was a Suby.
