If people want to complain about his name being offensive when he gives them his birth certificate, that's a different story. The context is much clearer there and its obvious its just his name.
That’s why I considered the complaint well-founded. But almost anything could be offensive — the name of a murderer, a rude word in a different language, the name of a location where somebody was victimized in some way, …. And don’t forget that we saw in the ASIMIL8 case that apparently standard English words are now offensive. So I think if it’s not blatantly offensive then providing a valid, non-offensive justification for the plate should be sufficient keep the plate. Remember, even under the current rules he had it for years before anybody complained. So clearly it’s not that bad (or wasn’t, until the current President was elected!).
