The Gadsden flag is hated by the left because it's a symbol of American patriotism and resistance against tyranny.
This is precisely the reason why we should stick it in their faces at every opportunity.

I have my Gadsen Flag flying at all times from the my front of my house. I was walking my dog the other night and a lady down the street confronted me about my flag. She started getting in my face about “Just who is it that you think is treading on you”. I should have said “You”. However, instead, I told her it was a flag designed by our founders to symbolize our countries resolve to be free and that we should all be proud of what the flag stands for. I then asked her, “do you have a problem with the flag?” She looked me in the face and said, “Yes I do”. I said “Have a nice night” and continued on with my walking my dog. Needless to say, the flag is still proudly flying from the front of my house.
I have started flying the Arizona state flag windsock here in Florida. I also have 3”x5” decals of their flag on my vehicles. It is so much fun when people ask what the decal is. I have yet to encounter someone who is against the idea. The decal is set right next to a die cut decal which reads;
We The People
Are Not Happy

I told my kids I wanted a flagpole kit and a Gadsden flag for Fathers Day. Hope I get it, it'll go up right in front of the house.
Gadsen, not Gadsden...duh.
>>If people got offended I apologize.<<
WRONG!! “If people get offended, F’em.” should be the response.
If there is a way to call the Gadsen flag “racist,” they will find it.
It is spelled Gadsden.
Christopher Gadsden (February 16, 1724 – September 15, 1805), a soldier and statesman from South Carolina, was the principal leader of the South Carolina Patriot movement in the American Revolution. He was a delegate to the Continental Congress and a brigadier general in the Continental Army during the War of Independence. He was also the designer of the famous Gadsden flag.
Is this the same "some" that AP always includes in their stories? Essentially, it means "the press and media and the Left".
