    It was used against the British during the American Revolution. Saying it is the same as supporting police allows zero historical understanding or nuance. Everyone in America originated from the Revolution as all were affected.

    Also, the don’t tread on me flag which originated from Virginia used to be more clearly anti authoritarianism and has been co-opted in the past few years by MAGA fans

      The dude who made the falg, Gadsen, was a slave trader.

      The notion is “I don’t want to pay taxes. But I have no problem with selling human beings.”
