The Internet erupted with its usual outrage this week when a 12-year-old Colorado boy named Jaiden was kicked out of his classroom for having a Gadsden “Don’t Tread On Me” flag patch affixed to his backpack. School authorities mistakenly believed the flag to have associations with slavery or violence, but were eventually informed about the actual Revolutionary era origins of the flag and its meaning.
Guest host Craig “Pasta” Jardula, along with Jimmy Dore and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger, talk to guest Maj Toure about the controversy and their hopes that the teacher involved was not in the school’s history department.

That flag was displayed at my elementary school in Florida around 1991. It stood out among the other flags displayed. Its wild how fast things have shifted.
This guest takes after Kurt – he's prone to rambling on and on and on, while rarely getting to the point.
Yes I agree it is beyond mental, how would you explain the fact that half of the adults in this country have lost their mind, unless God has turn their minds over to Satan 👹 I really am starting to believe the Christian Theory because there is no other explanation to all this madness in our country 👹
Funny how whenever someone realizes they are wrong the automatically then go to well I’m just following orders. So ridiculous
“Origins in slavery” is a catch all for the American Maoist cry bullies’ attempt to rid us of the “olds”.
Funny how whenever any kind of authoritarian rules or policies are put in place it’s always just well I’m just following the rules. Fuck people’s freedoms and rights cause people are just following the rules. Insane and so unbecoming in a free country or more now what use to be a free country
The flag is about standing up for your rights with deadly force if necessary. So naturally they hate that.
Nuance is a bad word nowadays. There are no shades of grey everything has to be black and white, right or wrong, red or blue, evil or hero
They know exactly what it means and they hate exactly what it means but they can’t say that. In other words, they LOVE tyranny and HATE opposition to it.
When you make a devastating counterpoint and an authority says “all I’m saying is [reiterates dumb original point],” it makes my skin crawl. Also, how they act like they’re passive participants in the stupid thing they’re doing, like they couldn’t just stop at any time.
Hate these people. Hate, hate, hate.
Hey kid, ger the rainbow or blm patch. You'll get student of the year😂😮😞😡
interesting. im in castle rock which is not too far and our school we have that flag hanging in our office…
More crime committed more people jailed. Suck it up
Shouldn’t teachers in Colorado be at least required to pass a basic history exam? Just saying.
I spit on usa uk France Anglo Saxon empire flags. ALL OF THEM. If you have a problem with that, don't do the crimes
Maj Toure is a bright intelligent man
These are the teachers who are saying " we are changing history to fit our racist narative". Welcome to Communist country.
Maybe all of us should send that school one of these flags.
@thejimmydoreshow.
FBI- Lists Americana patriot signs terrorist symbols
All FBI agents undergo "hate" training.
The ADL does the training.. OF EVERY FBI AGENT.
one can conclude- the ADL hates America and American values
If it was an lgbtq or azov battalion flag, it would be a whole different story…
These "teachers" are so pretentious. They know they're protected to throw this crap around.
The last thing a public teacher wants to be told is that she can’t tread on a child.
It's the guy's fault for being smart. Please take his side. We need just such a generation.
Woke idiots. 😮😮
How could a teacher not know this or at least look it up on the net? Idiot.
The mother and son questioned authority and proved they are idiots.
Nah. I have to disagree with the prison complex discussion. Not totally, but there is a nuance, as well, that is not being spoken about. And it makes the discussion one-sided, actually.
White supremacy is here & worldwide. It's in the form of white god & white jesus. And the jewish people claim they are not white but are people of color that turned white. No Hate just seeking the TRUTH.
yes Jimmy, you apparently can redefine things to fit your argument these days
the redefiniton of___
Bring Jimmy back
They want that flag off his backpack bc all they know how to do is tread on kids in school 😂
Got to be honest, whenever i hear people poeple banging on about being a Patriot or patriotic i tune them out, they have to be the biggest pearl clutchers out there
Pasta – how do white people have legal advantages over black people issues stated? You mentioned incarceration. Don't you think that the majority of people incarcerated are in there because they committed crimes? What we need to do is to convince the black community to commit less crimes. I know this makes people uncomfortable to even talk about this but the reason black people deal with the cops more than white people is because they commit more crimes than white people. Let's at least be intellectually honest.
Pasta claiming in this video that white people have white privilege really turns me off. I wish he'd get rid of this guy and bring Jimmy Dore back. I don't like the liberalism this guy pushes. White people are not privileged. Black people are covered by more laws to protect them than any other group of people in this country
