The Letters NGR Are Now Racist
Apparently there is no extreme of self-parody to which liberals will not push totalitarian political correctness. Now the random generation of letters is regarded as racist when it produces NGR.
Arkansas is actually pulling license plates out of circulation because moonbats object to the letters. It's only a matter of time before "niggardly" disappears from dictionaries and "Niger" from globes.

On a tip from V the K.

In this case, racism is in the eye of the beholder.

I wonder how long it is before people like Nicholas Gerald Roberts or Nancy Gail Rodgers will have to change their names ?

Actually, I didn't know "niggardly" was a word!!!
Doh... LOL!!!!
Prepare for the onslaught folks... the shooter who shot and killed 2 and wounded serveral people over the weekend at a Tennessee Unitarian (so called) Church... was an unhinged wingnut who hated liberals! Just like with the abortion clinics and the LDS pediphilia, the Leftwing will hold us all accountable for the church shooter, just like we still hear how "Chirstians are repsonsible for the murders of the doctors at the abortion cliincs and the rape of children in the LDS Cults. I'm prepared to be blamed for the next 30 years!

H.A.M.
Apparently that nut who shot up the Unitarian place was also ranting about his food stamps running out or something, which doesn't sound too conservative. I'm guessing he was just plain nuts.
But you're right. Every ten years or so something like this happens, and the moonbats say "look, you're no better than Islamists..."
Meanwhile, the ROP has been blowing people up in earnest the last few days - at a high rate even by their high standards. Multiple big bombings in India and Iraq plus the usual small scale mayhem pretty much everywhere else Islam comes in contact with infidels.

HAM,
The incidents which blew up over the use of the word niggardly are so noteworthy, have their very own entry in Wikipedia. It was a riot to see them unfold.

From the current Oxford American Dictionary definition of the word "niggard":
USAGE This word, along with its adverbial form niggardly, should be used with caution. Owing to the sound similarity to the highly inflammatory racial epithet nigger, these words can cause unnecessary confusion and unintentional offense.
(Political correctness has got to be stopped! You now have to censor yourself for using the english language correctly. You might offend or confuse someone who is uneducated. God help us.)

H.A.M. and Y'all -
Yup, expect all of the MoonBats against conservative talk radio and the ownership of firearms to make this wacko their poster child.
Nancy PolPotLucy is already warming up the bunch to vote on the Fairness Doctrine again.

Now I understand why the left wants to ban coal.

When my state switched to plates that have three letter and three numbers, I wondered if there would be certain letter combos they would skip. (FUK, FUC, CUM, DAM, ASS, SEX, etc...) but I never thought of NGR!!

Here's a mockery gem from that Wikipedia article on niggardly...
"The word's new lease of life is probably among manufacturers and retailers of sophomoric humor", wrote John Derbyshire, a conservative commentator, in 2002. "I bet that even as I write, some adolescent boys, in the stairwell of some high school somewhere in America, are accusing each other of being niggardly, and sniggering at their own outrageous wit. I bet ... Wait a minute. 'Sniggering'? Oh, my God...."
