It is the perception that is created with the plate in the first place. Let's face it, there are plenty of people in the area who have the attitude of GOHOME to non-residents. That is the impression that the person who visited got from the plate, and that is a fact. Overreacting? Maybe, but maybe they will find other places to go to spend their dollars that is more welcoming and we won't have to worry about them overreacting, or spending money, in our community again. Keep in mind that in the day of social media, something like this can go viral and taint a community in minutes.

If it doesn't mean what people think, what does it mean?
