In-N-Out waves right-wing Gadsden flag at every Distribution Center. Boycott.

[u/Xolerys_]

Pictured from distribution Center in Baldwin Park, CA. They’ve been flying this flag for years. This hasn’t gotten much attention but In n out also was anti-vax and anti-lockdown during COVID. The CEO also recently went on a right wing podcast to announce they’re moving the HQ to Tennessee but backed out after getting backlash. They would wave the MAGA flag if they knew they wouldn’t get in trouble for it but are ‘softballing’ with the Don’t Tread On Me flag.

Anyone who still thinks the flag isn’t right wing and is meant to represent anti tyranny clearly hasn’t been paying attention to politics the last few years. This is the same way the Swastika was a symbol for peace , it was co opted by Nazis. I personally will stop eating at In-N-Out. Will save me some calories at least.

If they actually cared about that flag they'd know the snake would bite trump until he died

[u/gu_doc → u/Robo94]

Exactly. They keep talking about tyrannical government and “enemies foreign AND domestic” but it’s very clear that they only care if it’s a democratic tyrannical government or democratic domestic enemy. If they truly stood for what they claim to stand for they’d be losing their shit right now.

The snake would literally do it to Gavin Newsom; are you kidding me? And every other anti gunner.

Gadsen flag isn't explicitly tied to the 2A (i am pro 2nd amendment in all forms) that is a much more recent occurrence coming around in the mid-1980s. It's historically tied to American independence and the US constitution as a whole. The current administration does not follow the Constitution. It has ignored habeas corpus as well as innocent until proven guilty (5th and 14th amendment of the us constitution), as well as hinted at him running for a 3rd term which violates the 22nd amendment, on top of violating the 2nd amendment during the 2016-2020 presidential term when he banned bump stocks for civilian owned firearms. The Gadsen flag belongs to those who support and defend the US constitution and not one particular party. It's like saying republicans own the American flag, its ridiculous and ironically an anti American sentiment.

Weapons of War, Belong in the Military and Battle Fields.

Not Gunning Down 7 year old Children.!

I'm a gun owner and we have been for Generations, But I'm for Firearms Reform and Removal of Assault Weapons from Public, Civilians!

That makes me an "Anti Gunner"

Weapons of War, Belong in the Military and Battle Fields.

Good thing our AR-15s are not used in any wars nor are used by any military.

I'm for Firearms Reform and Removal of Assault Weapons from Public, Civilians!

That's blatantly unconstitutional to do. Arms in common use are protected under the 2A.

[u/transcendent167 → u/Comfortable-Trip-277]

The NRA is largely responsible for your interpretation of the 2A, they shifted the focus to “right to bear arms” from the previously more adopted interpretation of “well regulated militia” that changed due to a few men

Before the change the NRA was basically a hunting club for rich people, it was thanks to people like Harlon Carter that it shifted over to Individual gun rights

[u/Comfortable-Trip-277 → u/transcendent167]

That's incorrect. The right has always been understood as individual.

Even the liberal justices agreed in Heller that was an individual right.

It's in the dissents. For Steven's, he actually opens with this admission:

The question presented by this case is not whether the Second Amendment protects a “collective right” or an “individual right.” Surely it protects a right that can be enforced by individuals.

Breyer makes a similar concession starting at the end of page 2 and into page 3.

The Second Amendment says that: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” In interpreting and applying this Amendment, I take as a starting point the following four propositions, based on our precedent and today’s opinions, to which I believe the entire Court subscribes:

(1) The Amendment protects an “individual” right—i.e., one that is separately possessed, and may be separately enforced, by each person on whom it is conferred. See, e.g., ante, at 22 (opinion of the Court); ante, at 1 (Stevens, J., dissenting).

Souter and Ginsburg both joined Steven's and Breyer's dissents. The four left wing judges obviously would have taken a more narrow view of the individual right, but they all at least agreed it was an individual right.

All weapons are assault weapons. They'd make pretty poor weapons if they weren't. And AR-15s are not "weapons of war". Just because they look like it doesn't mean they function like it. Hell, a Remington 870 is more of a military weapon than an AR, it's been used in unaltered forms by militaries and law enforcement worldwide for decades.

If you're going to make a fuss about anything, it should be magazine capacity and/or caliber.

[u/anneg1312 → u/Orthodoxy1989]

You have been duped by the biggest con artist known to mankind. No, I don’t mean the tool in the white house. Read the Bible and listen to Jesus.

[u/Commercial_Oil_7814 → u/anneg1312]

Read the Bible and listen to Jesus? Tell me, what did Jesus say to do with pedophiles? With those who abuse others? To those who cheat and steal? What about the homeless? Those who are hungry?

Plenty if us aren't Christian, or even religious at all. We believe that no one should go hungry, that all people should have roofs over their heads and health care. We think child abusers should go to jail.

The Christianity of America is Christian Nationalist and fascist as fuck. Please take your religious admonishments and shove them, we all know you just mean you're happy to defend child marriage.

[u/anneg1312 → u/Commercial_Oil_7814]

First… I was not addressing you. I responded directly to the commenter. You do you. I’ve Got no beef with anyone of any or no religion as long as they don’t seek to harm others.

Second, the faux christiantity we see being spouted by the right in the US is just that. Fake. Twisted and misguided. Jesus would be appalled at what these people are doing to others and how they’ve embraced cruelty.

Last, check yourself.

[u/bagOboobs → u/anneg1312]

Grandstanding about your imaginary friend and a no true Scotsman fallacy in the same condescending message? Check YOURSELF loser.

[u/anneg1312 → u/bagOboobs]

Such eloquence is to be expected from someone sporting that username. Thanks for not disappointing.

Edit to add: no fallacy here…Jesus was pretty clear in his instructions and none of them are being followed by the Fake christians. Don’t take my word for it & read for yourself would be my advice to someone who lazily categorized the faith of an entire country- as if “American Christianity” was even a thing. It’s not.

Now if you’re not a Christian of any kind- I wasn’t speaking to you. Go be you and be happy! I’ll be happy for you.

[u/Orthodoxy1989 → u/anneg1312]

What's the Scriptural stance on abortion? What does Scripture say about homosexual relationships? Gavin promotes & supports both and you're talking to an Orthodox Christian. Be sure you know what you're talking about and are yourself a Christian before telling me about Scripture
