California DMV Calls Pro-Police Vanity Plate ‘Offensive’ And ‘Threatening,’ Denies Request
AvatarSandy Malone1

Napa, CA – The California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) denied a retired cop’s request for vanity license plates that read “BLUTHINL” because that term “may be considered threatening, aggressive or hostile.”

Scott Parkhurst, a U.S. Army veteran and former police officer, told the Times-Herald that he had a vanity plate on his motorcycle that read “OFFASIR” and another on a car that read “10CODES,” so he was surprised when his latest idea was rejected.

Parkhurst said he requested the vanity plate “BLUTHINL” in March, a play on the phrase “Thin Blue Line.”
