Feb. 3, 2013 - Atlanta, GA - CYRUS GILBERT, an openly gay man in Atlanta, shows a mock version of a ''GAYGUY'' personalized license plate that Georgia officials refused to approve. .Cyrus has sued the state of Georgia, claiming his rights were violated in his quest for a vanity license plate. ''Many people have all sorts of personalized vanity license plates reflecting their affiliations and identities, '' Gilbert explains. Apparently, homosexual identity doesn't make the cut in Georgia, he said..Two other license plates he requested were also rejected: ''4GAYLIB'' and ''GAYPWR.''.Certain messages on vanity plates aren't allowed by the state of Georgia, including include plates that are vulgar or hateful..Gilbert's lawsuit is asking for injunctive relief, compelling the state to approve the license plate. He is also requesting a court order to declare the state regulation that governs vanity plates as unconstitutional..That could happen if a court finds Gilbert's ''GAYGUY'' license plate request was rejected because of the viewpoint it expressed. In general, a government regulation must be viewpoint-neutral: It cannot inhibit a citizen's speech based on the view expressed in the speech, according to Gilbert's legal counsel.
