Pathetic License

ND license plate with Minute Man figure and Minute Man missiles, plus the tagline Peace Garden State
Am I the only one who thinks the North Dakota license plate is just a bit contradictory?

Good grief! Yes, the clash couldn't be greater. I unhappily mused about this disparity during childhood trips to North Dakota (we visited relatives in Zap) when we passed my great-uncle Dave's farm near Milton (not that far from the Peace Garden) and saw all the missile silos in the fields.

Not every NoDak license plate has the soldier/missile logo, only the National Guard plates — notice the letters NG next to the logo. Which isn't to say we Dakotans ain't proud of our missiles, we are!
