Agreed. Why is the state offering plates that support one side of a very political issue in the country? Oh, that's right, because they are politicians and think they know better. And no, the state shouldn't get away with it even if they offered opposing views. This is just way, way outside the scope of a proper government.
Gawd, the mindset you have to be in to use taxpayer money to push your own [oppressive, rights-violating] beliefs. It's stoopid.

I have a problem with these because only some groups are able to get them out to be issued.
Though I bought military veteran plates so I never get pulled over again.

The government shouldn't be in the business of marketing ideas.

I don't get why you need to always offer the opposing view. Do we need an "Oppose the Troops" plate a well if we're going to have "Support the Troops"
Sigmund Freud defined four parts of a psyche; the id, the ego, the superego and the stratego. The Stratego being the highest form of morality and scientific thinking.
