Elizabeth Solomon wins right to say GAYSROK
The state of Utah can't block Elizabeth Solomon, pictured, from using her license plate to tell the world "GAYSROK," a judge has ruled. The plate reads "Gays are OK" or "Gays Rock," and while it's not yet an outright victory for Solomon since the state can appeal, Judge Jane Phan wrote, "The narrow issue before us is whether a reasonable person would believe the terms 'gays are OK' and 'gay rights' are, themselves, offensive to good taste and decency. It is the conclusion of the commission that a reasonable person would not."
If and when Solomon is ever allowed to display her gay rights vanity plate, she fully expects her car to be vandalized. Nevertheless, Solomon considers the decision to be a victory for her lesbian daughter and her two gay male friends. (Thanks Carl)
