The California Department of Motor Vehicles announced Friday that it “is taking swift action to recall” a set of license plates that mocked the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas attack on Israel. The license plate read “LOLOCT7,” which stands for laugh out loud, according to a post on X from the organization StopAntisemitism. “Demand the CA DMV recall this license plate that celebrates the October 7th terrorist attack — a vile mockery of the 1,200 innocent lives lost and the countless others scarred,” the watchdog organization StopAntisemitism said in a post on the social network X. https://x.com/StopAntisemites/status/1867378263846236666 The DMV called the personalized plate “unacceptable and disturbing” in a post on X.

The DMV pledged in a post on X to “immediately strengthen our internal review process to ensure such an egregious oversight never happens again.” “We sincerely apologize that these personalized plates were not properly rejected during our review process,” the DMV said in a post on X. “The use of hateful language is not lonely a clear violation of our policies but also a violation of out core values to proudly serve the public and ensure safe and welcoming roadways.”
