"Don't tread on me" license plate

Specifically, white nationalism, anti-government and guns guns guns everywhere. The gun related bumper sticker is a dead giveaway, too. And it's troubling, because that means you now have a person who is armed, and living in very close proximity to you. That's reason enough to be concerned all by itself, but when taken in context with them being nazis, it would keep anyone up at night for sure.

That flag is basically the same as flying a rebel flag or a swastika flag, except the snake flag is like the undercover version, but the meaning is still the same, and the people who fly it know they are meeting a fellow nazi when they see someone with it. They can identify each other at a distance.

Of course, what they're too stupid to realize is that regular people can also spot them at a distance, too, once it became clear what that flag represented. This thread is the perfect demonstration of that. It's no longer a secret to anyone, but they keep showing that flag. Which also illustrates how stupid many of them are.


As for your neighbors specifically, how worried you should be depends on several factors that only you could really answer since you're there dealing with it. Best way to deal with it is pretend they don't exist. Don't acknowledge them, don't talk to them, anything. No interaction means they never get a chance to know anything about you, and you therefore, never become a potential target. These people personalize everything, and that's how they choose their victims - people who they perceive as being opposition, better or in some cases, being a POC is enough. But they tend to strike out at victims who are the object of their hatred, like that guy did in Alexandria this spring. If you don't acquaint yourself with them, you can keep from becoming an object of obsession in their minds. That's the best way to keep yourself safe. And it goes without saying that you should definitely keep an eye on them, discretely. If you see any activity that would indicate they are up to something, thats when you need to call the cops.

Good luck. It's terrible that people have to deal with stuff like this.

OMG, I can't even believe what I just read. Seek help, PP. Extremists like YOU are the real problem. Dear God, I am so glad I don't live next door to you.

Someone (hmmm, PP, perhaps) needs to develop a sense of humor if you are going to play with the big kids on DCUM.

They are nazis. Period.

I find this so insulting.

Maybe stop feeling insulted for one minute and actually LISTEN to people. My Jewish wife has the same creepy feelings when she sees a bunch of jacked up white dudes waving the Gadsen as she does when she sees Confederatd flags in southern VA or rural MD. Especially when those people are at political rallies saying "Take our country back!"

I guarantee a solid one-third of this country is utterly repulsed by the Gadsen flag because of what it's become to those who intensely dislike "fake" Americans.

And I get a creepy feeling when I read the op and the people defending her.

Maybe if the folks waving the Gadsen gave up the politics of exclusion it would make people feel safer in their presence?

And yes, the introduction of the Gadsen license plate is 100% about capitalizing on Tea Party and exclusionary right wing politics. Why wasn't the Gadsen license plate introduced in 2001, after the September 11 attacks? Or maybe in 1991, after the fall of Communism?

It has zero to do with the Marines, the colonial era, or history. It's about exclusionary politics and tribalism. Gross.

You can't just declare its meaning and then reject people based on that. Are you 12?

Interesting that you have zero rebuttal to the facts I laid out.

Tell me:
"Take back our country" - from whom?
"Make America great again" - to when? Is it not great already?

The more you gaslight and pretend it doesn't mean what I claim, the more easily the rest of us see through your supremacist views. Stop bullsh#tting and feigning outrage.

Welcome back "gaslight" poster. We have missed your trite comments.

Completely agree. The manufactured hysteria on this thread is mind-blowing.

I guess they'd be making the same jokes if registered sex offender moved next door, too. Because that's just as funny.

Are you for real? That's right up there with calling conservatives, "Nazis and racists." What kind of simpleton actually equates people with opposing political views to sex offenders??

No, they don't know this. Liberals are too busy with their navel-gazing and echo chambers to realize there are those who selflessly put their lives on the line to protect all of us and our freedoms.

And I agree - no matter what - do not let your children do over to their house. There will be firearms in that house. Most likely unsecured firearms.

Would you offer the same advice when the Muslim family moves in on the other side and the wife is wearing a hijab?

THIS.

No, because I'm not a raging Islamaphobe, unlike you.

But apparently you are a complete and utter asshole who defines people by nothing more than their license plates.

I'm actually a bleeding heart liberal, who's appalled at the hypocrisy on this thread.

You're appalled that so many people find nazis living next door to be..... appalling. The irony is sadly delicious

The term "Nazi" has become completely meaningless, thanks to numbskull liberals like yourself.

Dream on and screw you. We're reasonable people who realize the ridiculousness of judging a neighbor by their license plate. You can't say you support peace and tolerance and liberal values, and then dismiss the family next door because you suspect you disagree with them politically. This whole thread disgusts me, and I only hope the op and her supporters are the Russians. Otherwise I really do fear for my country.
