An interesting vanity plate in my local grocery store parking lot

Okay, I had two competing reactions when I saw this vanity plate early this morning--one quite benign and the other less so. So, what do you think?

1. I can't believe Colorado (that is a CO plate, right) allowed that.

I would report it.

2. That was my thought, but I decided to make sure I wasn't overreacting first...

3. Alan Azi, but still should not be allowed. nt

Also, I'm finding some individuals online with that surname.

5. I've worked in the Middle East for several years and not encountered it, but thanks...

Unfortunate surname in this country to put on a vanity plate, I think, but okay...

8. Well, I personally would never put my actual name on vanity plate, but some might...

Especially with ICE frothing at the mouth to find someone--anyone--to pursue for any reason. An Arab name might just have them circling.

9. I wouldn't do that either.

There are a couple of hundred extended family members in my local area, and my last name is well known in my area...I've seen plates with my last name (one as a standalone name, and others that incorporate my last name).

But I wouldn't do it...because people are crazy and you never know who might be your enemy and have a beef with you! Therefore, I don't feel a need to flash my surname on my license plate.
