Maybe, but maybe they will find other places to go to spend their dollars that is more welcoming and we won't have to worry about them overreacting, or spending money, in our community again. Keep in mind that in the day of social media, something like this can go viral and taint a community in minutes.
If it doesn't mean what people think, what does it mean?

Why don't you find out for yourself rather than sit there and make foolish assumptions. You're painting someone negative based on six letters that could mean ANYTHING. You have got to be kidding me that you seriously have nothing better to do but criticize someone for their choice of a vanity plate. It's people like YOU who taint society. Everyone knows that the Lakes Region economy is funded by both in-staters AND out-of-staters.
Maybe she has an immense amount of wealth, works locally to occupy her time, and truly wants people like you to "go home". However, what I have just stated is simply a "what-if" because I have no knowledge.
This topic is utterly pointless and really doesn't bring much value to this forum. I do know that vehicle is local to the area, but for all you know this car could have been someone from Southern NH and is referring to critical people like you from central NH. You have no basis for your argument without facts and your "freedom of speech" on this topic should be revoked considering is has nothing to do with Lake Winnipesaukee unless of course you want to rely on your ASSUMPTION that this person wants out of staters to go home.
Lock it, move it to the general issues forum, or delete it (my suggestion)...but this is far to pointless to keep open in the general forum.
