41. I hear you, BlackAder. So let's "Take Our Flag Back"

Sun Jan 8, 2017, 01:26 PM

Jan 2017

Maybe I'm living in a fantasy. But why not give "a strong re-appropriation effort" a try? There are almost a quarter of a million of us registered here on DU. Yeah, I know that's not a lot in the big scheme of things. But why not give it a try?

Grass roots resistance has to start somewhere. Why not here? Why not us? Why not now? Why not reclaim the flag under which most of us grew up? What's to lose?

Imagine the badge of pride we could all wear for the rest of our lives by being added to Trump's "Enemies List."

With the Gadsden, I was hoping that the LGBTQ groups would take over the original Gadsden flag. TheBlackAdder Jan 2017 #44
