Gadsden Flag

I find the use and abuse of the the Gadsden flag, designed by South Carolinian native, politician, delegate to the Continental Congress, and Brigadier General in the Continental Army during the revolutionary war despicable.  More in next post since I am new to creating a thread and can't seem to get that file to load properly.

I cringe every time I see a Gadsden flag and a Confederate battle flag flying from the bed of a pick-up truck.  Those two flags should never be flown together, since they represent completely different ideals, although some ignorant individuals seem to intertwine their limited intellect around the basic idea of freedom without understanding the rationale behind either disparate movement.

Although many different flags, banners, and jacks were used during the Civil War, as far as I am concerned the "First National" is the flag of the Confederate States (CSA):
