A Honolulu, Hawaii, man is refusing to give up a license plate with the words “FCK BLM,” referring to the activist organization Black Lives Matter, written across it.
The license plate was first spotted in August 2021, and brought to the attention of city authorities. They recalled the plate, but the car is reportedly still driving around with the same plates, KITV4 reported Friday.
“We have sent three letters to the registered owner recalling the license plate. However, the registered owner has failed to surrender the plate. CSD has placed a hold on further renewals of his vehicle registration and his registration is now expired. HPD is able to cite the vehicle if it is being operated on the roads,” Honolulu’s Department of Customer Services told KITV4.
The City and County of Hawaii told KITV4 the license plate was “ill-advised oversight,” since license plates with “FCK” or “FKN” are not allowed.

The New York Black Lives Matter (BLM) chapter co-founder slammed Democrats as wanting to keep black Americans “crippled” during a Thursday interview on Fox News’ “America’s Newsroom.”
Hawk Newsome said Democrats want to keep black Americans dependent on welfare while discussing whether the defund the police rhetoric hurt the black community, which host Bill Hemmer suggested.
“Here’s the problem, because the cops are not the answer. Poor people commit crimes out of desperation. Address the poverty,” Newsome said. “The Republicans don’t care. But they’ll say we’ll teach you to empower yourselves. Democrats want to keep us handicapped and crippled and on welfare, right? Instead of giving us the answer to our problems. Is there a reason why high school students in the South Bronx drop out at a 60% rate? Our schools are failing. You want to end crime? Give the kids programs.”

FBI data shows murders among black Americans spiked in 2020 amid BLM protests and anti-police protests, according to Fox News. Black murders increased 32% in 2020 compared to the previous year, the outlet reported.
Newsome also blasted Democratic New York City Mayor Eric Adams for his inability to keep the city safe after Adams questioned the presence of BLM.
“Don’t listen to what Eric Adams says, he gives great press statements. He’s the master of the press conference,” he said. “Some kid dies, he hugs their mother. He’s holding up sneakers, he’s crying. But what we elected him for, the city of New York, was to keep the city safe. This city is a war zone and he can’t stop it.”
Newsome also alleged Adams is a “white man in blackface” and a “very conservative-minded white man at that.”
