Arkansas Pulls Hundreds Of 'Racist' License Plates
'I Couldn't Imagine Putting This On My Car,' Motorist Says


ARKANSAS -- A series of hundreds of Arkansas-issued license plates are being pulled out of circulation over letter combinations that some claim are racist.

"I couldn't imagine putting this on my car," motorist Alice Kunce said as she held up her "018-NGR" license plate.

Kunce said she found the letter combination offensive.

"She looked at it and said, 'Why not,'" Kunce said. "I said, 'Look at it, what does it say?' and she looked at it and said, 'Oh.'"

The state decided to pull the entire series of plates after being made aware of the letter combination.
