"Don't tread on me" flag. Is there any objectionable connotation to it? (as with Confederate flag)

It's the new rebel flag

Only because you say it is.

No, because racists co-opted it. You can't save it just because you don't mean it that way, any more than you can rehabilitate Pepe the Frog or swastikas.

I live in NoVA and know of a Muslim person and a black person with this license plate.

That license plate was very popular where I used to live in the South - but I was surprised to see so many of them around here (NoVa). Whenever I see one, I assume that the driver of the car is alt-right/racist.

I have seen a black person with this plate too. Not sure why.

I have noticed numerous Latinos with them; they are fine.

Don't know what OP's problem is.

It's one of the associations. I like it.

I have a nice impression of the people with those license plates. To me, they signal a person who cares about our country and doesn't want to see people's rights trampled by an aloof, uncaring bureaucracy.

Aww, that's precious.

Why is everyone so obsessed with how people will view the flag or license plate. It's not like they are putting a burning cross in their front yard.

I don't think most people would pay any attention to it, unless you lived in a judgemental or narrow minded area like DC.

Fixed it for you.


And the snake-flag is pretty much the equivalent of a burning cross. It's just that most people are too stupid to recognize it for what it s

It's just that you don't get to decide for everyone else that they should believe what you believe.

That's what I associate the flag with, not the tea party or as the new confederate flag.

Actually, I'm totally comfortable making just those sort of judgements. I'm educated, politically savvy, and a believer in social justice. I can identify racism when I see it, even when racists are hiding behind cover and excuses.

Bottom line, I'm EXACTLY the person qualified to be able to tell others what they should believe, especially if they're too stupid to arrive at the right conclusion themselves.

OK. But, you are wrong
