Woke scolds have now found a way to get upset over a flag closely associated with the American founding and the Revolutionary War.

Florida has unveiled a new license plate featuring the Gadsden flag.

American revolutionary Christopher Gadsden designed the flag in 1775 for the newborn U.S. Navy, according to the Charleston Museum.

The flag was intended to symbolize defiance of the British crown’s tyranny, and it features a rattlesnake rising against a metaphorical treading boot.

A Wednesday hit piece from NPR sought to link the license plate and the Gadsden flag to “dangerous far-right extremist ideology.”

A representative of the Southern Poverty Law Center quoted by NPR said:

The state can’t claim a lack of knowledge about what this image represents to most of the public.

The SPLC representative linked the flag to the Jan. 6, 2021, disturbance at the U.S. Capitol.

However, the flag has been used for decades by libertarians and other critics of government overreach—far before the Capitol incursion.

Six states already offered Gadsden flag-themed license plates in 2014, according to The Washington Post.

The license plate’s rollout received a negative reception from DeSantis’ partisan critics, who object to the revolutionary flag.

Pre-orders of the plate will benefit the Florida Veterans Foundation, according to Fox News.

Final thought: Governor DeSantis is amazing and a pure joy the way he and his staff continuously come up with ways to benefit the state and people of Florida while simultaneously telling the Obiden Regime to buzz off.

God speed Governor DeSantis.

And God speed to Conservatism.
