The world is going crazy...


The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission is gathering information to determine if the iconic Gadsden flag is racist and punishable under workplace harassment regulations.

The individual who filed the complaint did so because the flag is allegedly an “indicator of white resentment against blacks,” and that its creator, South Carolina statesmen Christopher Gadsden, owned slaves.

Suppose the gentlemen who filed the formal complaint would be offended if someone shoved their foot up his ass?

I read that slaves built the White House. Maybe we should tear it down? Build some public toilets there instead...

One piece at a time...this should be defensible under free speech but they are making everything a hate crime.

One of many reasons I'll never work for the feds again. Everyone's a special snowflake that needs to be carefully tended. The military is no exception...

I used to wear on my suit a lapel pin of the first Navy Jack from the Revolutionary War whenever I was in Federal court.

You're white, therefore anything you use as a symbol is racist. Capisce?

Yes they are, and most Americans are too busy pulling shit out of their ass to watch on TV to pay attention.

Yea forget it's a motto developed during the revolutionary war to spite the British, besides everything surely has to do with race and the oppression of every culture. Oh look there's a blue sky, surely that's Racist!!!!

Only if there is a white cloud in the sky, dark clouds are OK.

Im reminded of a song by Suicidal Tendencies:

Just cause you don't understand what's going on
...don't mean it don't make no sense
And just cause you don't like it,
...don't mean it ain't no good
And let me tell you something
Before you go taking a walk in my world,
...you better take a look at the real world
Cause this ain't no Mr. Rogers Neighborhood
Can you say "feel like shit?"
Yea maybe sometimes I do feel like shit
I ain't happy about it, but I'd rather feel like shit
...than be full of shit!
And if I offended you, Oh I'm sorry
But, maybe you needed to be offended
But here's my apology and one more thing...Fuck you!
Cause you can't bring me down

I think that Pink Pistols developed that version. I know a couple of their leaders.

A lot of these being worn by some solid people, of all races, in the DFAC here in Iraq. I doubt they consider the DTOM message to be "racist":

My neighbor has been flying that flag for years. It's a nice touch in the neighborhood.
