Bottom line, I'm disappointed. I wish they all would fly their freak flags so we could easily spot them and avoid.

Go ahead and let your thoughts be known.

I have a neighbor who hung a Gadsden flag in their front room so that it is very visible through their front windows when the lights are in. They are known as the neighborhood jackasses and the rest of us avoid them as much as possible.

Another reason this northerner wants OUT of this area

I think this "northerner" has never been to upstate NY, or NH if you think you're never going to see another Gasdsen flag when you move up north. Or maybe you meant Brooklyn . . .

NH Gadsden flags predate MAGA. Lots of overlap today, but the “f off” sentiment has been there for a long time.

Don't they use in VA license tag?

MAGAs get the Gadsden plates.

So annoyed. That was a Revolutionary flag, part of our history co-opted by racists. Same with the OK hand signal. https://www.adl.org/resources/hate-symbol/okay-hand-gesture

Yeah, that one really bothers me! That was totally a normal and acceptable hand gesture that has absolutely nothing to do with racism until very recently.

Ugh, same. I reflexively used the ok emoji in a text chain recently then nearly had a panic attack imagining I just sent up some kind of racist smoke signal.

My family is from a town where neighbors still fly the “rebel flag” fwiw I saw a sticker on a pickup in National Harbor/Oxon Hill a couple months back. The flag is out there still if you’re needing companions.

What makes me laugh about the Gadsden tags is that they’re always on fairly new cars.

Like, how tread on can you be if you can afford to drive that?

There can be restrictions by your HOA as well. In VA, HOAs can't restricts homeowners from displaying American flags for example but other flags they can limit. Just depends.

And for all those crying about socially unacceptable - oh give it a rest. You didn't care until someone on social media told you too. It took until 2015 for the city of Alexandria to stop putting up Confederate flags each year. The flags were displayed around the City and they were put up by City workers. Oh year, and during that time, Alexandria had a long serving mayor - who was Black. And the people who put up the flags were often Black City workers.

I’ve known all my life, actually. Pre-social media.

But joking aside, WTAF is wrong with you OP? How did you get broken inside to want to fly a symbol of hate, racism, and violence and KNOW it’s wrong by your “Southern flag” nonsense?

One of the reasons I wasn't allowed to watch Dukes of Hazzard growing up was my parents' amazement that anyone was driving around with that racist seditious flag.

Love the snake tags. Tells me right away which car I should key if I see it.

Gee, I do the same thing when I see a Biden/ Giggles bumper sticker!

Is this what you mean, OP? The South Pole flag is fine.

I know of at least 4 houses in old Fairfax that still fly the Confederate flag in their front yard. I also know of two on Telegraph Road in Alexandria that fly it.

I can't even begin to tell you how many homes in Old Town have them displayed inside, though they are usually framed in a den and sometimes the real deal- authentic battle Flags from the Army of Northern VA. Very neat historical artifacts, in my opinion.

Yes, infuriating. The worst part is that the people flying this flag and using the sticker version of it to symbolize their racist, hateful beliefs have no idea of what the flag actually meant. I hate that they’ve ruined it for now and future generations. My kids was looking at historic US flags in an old atlas and now thinks all of our neighbors out in the country are history buffs. It’s hard to explain to a 5 year old.

The first time my kid got close enough to see that snake he wanted to know why the plates had a poop emoji on them.
