Col West - Gadsden Flag Is Patriotism Not Racism There are more than just a few entitled BLM sympathizers working in the Postal Department and at least one who feels he has the right to force others to wear clothing that theyre both comfortable with. Hes probably a product of Americas education system too and largely ignorant of our history. The situation arose because one postal worker, the easily offended BLM type, determined that the Gadsden flag hat of another, obviously a patriotic American, was racist. The butt hurt BLM racist complained and now its gone to the EEOC. Lt Col Allen West shares his views on the situation. Greta Van Susteren asks if the flag is racist, to which Col West replies, Well I just will let you know that when you walk into my home in Dallas, TX, you will see the Gadsden Flag, I have a t-shirt that has the Gadsden Flag and when I go out motorcycle riding I have the Gadsden Flag on my motorcycle vest. And if you happen to notice, I am an American black man and I dont see any racism or racial harassment involved with the Gadsden Flag. West says, This is part of our history and this is part of those patriots that stood up to tyrannical government and said a very simple message, dont tread on me. And this comes from an administration, Greta, that cant even name the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization. But yet they want to question on of the iconic and historic flags. And as a matter of fact, the United States Navy used to fly that Dont Tread on Me flag. West points out in the closing, Im sure there are a lot of police officers that really are offended by a Black Lives Matter t-shirt, but you dont see them going out and complaining, do you? Touch Col West.
