Racism Or Just Plain Ignorance?

We are not sure if it is a question of racism or plain ignorance on the part of the owner of the vehicle with the vanity license plate: KKK 001.



This plate is real. The Registro Nacional has it duly registered, whose registration information is available publicly at: http://www.registronacional.go.cr/bienes_muebles/muebles_consultavehiculos.htm , showing that this racist or idiot also owes on the vehicle.

The Registro Nacional (National Registry) introduced earlier this year a new series of license plates and for the first time allowing Ticos to have "vanity" plates, a custom plate or personalized plate.

The Registro eliminated all vowels from the combination of letters in an effort to void vulgar or profane use. A vanity plate is similar to the regular plate save the owner of the vehicle will have paid extra for a combination of choice for three letters and three numbers.

PS. In checking the vehicle registration, there is only one K in the complete name of the registered owner. The photo was submitted to us by a Facebook fan.
