It makes me wonder, what if there was a mass civil disobedience movement to file complaints against Black Lives Matter for being a racist organization? It could short-circuit the DOJ and other agencies with a flood of paradoxical paperwork. (Using the system against itself.)

Should libs want to fly the hammer and sickle flag, I would just consider that as being honest.

Ah, a good reason to buy one and fly it in the front yard.

I've had a DTOM Sticker on my rear windshield for 11 years. Does that make me a racist?The rationale is that apparently the guy who designed the flag was a slave owner. But then, so was Washington, and Jefferson as well as most of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. Should history discard these men?
When stupidity such as this is put forth, it lessens the impact of truly racist displays.

The Democrat party fought to prevent blacks from voting and being equal under the law. Their mascot is the donkey/jackass. Thus they are an historically racist organization. Therefore if this flag is considered racist and should thus be banned (like salt), so too should Democrat party symbols and perhaps even the party itself.

You can't be a free thinker and allow limited interpretation of symbols to dominate your "thinking".

Liberty or death, what we so proudly hail
Once you provoke her, rattling of her tail
Never begins it, never, but once engaged
Never surrenders, showing the fangs of rage
Don't tread on me

So be it
Threaten no more
To secure peace is to prepare for war
So be it
Settle the score
Touch me again for the words that you'll hear evermore
Don't tread on me

Love it or leave it, she with the deadly bite
Quick is the blue tongue, forked as lighting strike
Shining with brightness, always on surveillance
The eyes, they never close, emblem of vigilance
Don't tread on me

So be it
Threaten no more
To secure peace is to prepare for war
So be it
Settle the score
Touch me again for the words that you'll hear evermore

Don't tread on me
So be it
Threaten no more
To secure peace is to prepare for war
Liberty or death, what we so proudly hail
Once you provoke her, rattling on her tail

So be it
Threaten no more
To secure peace is to prepare for war
So be it
Settle the score
Touch me again for the words that you'll hear evermore
Don't tread on me

The Liberal, Progressive Democrat Party thinks anything that indicates individualism, self reliance and individual honor is racist.
Things like that (Don't Tread on Me) indicate such things and , according to the LPDP are not acceptable. It make actually make people free and equal as opposed to oppressed and unequal.
If racists have marched under it, it is to therir dishonor and shame, not the flags.

As one commentator observed, this is not PC, it is BS!

I recently was talking about the Gadsden Flag issue with someone. They were trying to tell me how it was racist. I almost lost it, but then I gathered my composure and simply told them in three simple words, KMA.

I fly Old Glory and the POW/MIA Flag every day. Should I add another set of flag anchor rings to my pole (three flags) or do I need another flag pole?

The left and other non-conscious entities "become what they think about most of the time".

If Gadsden's flag is a symbol for the tea party members it seems they are a minority and should be afforded protection like today's favorite coddled groups.
AR stated that you can't be a champion of minorities if you deny individual rights.The individual is the smallest minority on Earth!
Once again govt weeding out or at least intimidating rational individuals.

That did it! I am going out and stock up on bumper stickers, flags and various other ways to display the "Don't Tread On Me" icon. The "inmates" think they are truly running the asylum and their idiotic thinking is showing through! Perhaps it is time someone sat them down and pointed out just how delusional they have become!

Me & my ol shovelhead dont give any kind of damn what they think. http://www.starznbarz.com/People/THIS...

I have had just about enough of these people trying to rewrite American History because it doesn't fit into their racist scheme. I'm so angry at this point that these people should be deported from this country. The alternative in my mind would be a much more violent demise for them. Now, I will have to go on to the the internet to purchase a Gadsden Flag before they are forced of the markets.

I went to Amazon and found a "In the Breeze Don't Tread on Me Garden Flag." Size is 12 by 18 inches. Price is $11.99. When it comes, it will immediately go in the front yard.

The idea of "political correctness" was an invention of the Communist Party, as a way to silence anyone who tried to retain rights guaranteed in the Constitution. Those who used to be card-carrying communists are now ensconced in various liberal organizations and environmental groups, and are using the same tools.

Ok, one of us needs to start one of those White House petitions that asks Mr. O'Bozo to do the following:
1. Direct the EEOC to find that offence is not given by wearing an article of clothing that celebrates American history.
2. Send a letter to the offended party telling him to get a life.

If the offended party is offended by anything made or inventer by a slave owner he will live a pretty primative existence.

"Little things entertain little minds".:

If racists did march under this flag, that's ironic. People opposed to racism should reclaim it: Don't tread on me.
