For explanation: Boogaloo movement, "Neo-Nazis use the number 88 as an abbreviation for the Nazi salute Heil Hitler.[11] The letter H is eighth in the alphabet, whereby 88 becomes HH.[12] "

That's exactly what the Nazi's say. These two lighting bolts? It's nothing bro! I just like the number 88! 14 is my lucky number! Etc etc

See it's funny you say that. My neighbor had a pumpkin that I SWORE was two lightning bolts, til I looked at it properly and it was the KISS logo. And say what you want about being a KISS fan, it's a lot better than the conclusion that was initially reached. Benign explanations for things exist, and you have to look at more than a license plate to get an idea of someone's beliefs.
