    You must hang out with different-looking white people than I do.

    Not a single nose ring or piercings or neck tattoo among them. My kind of people (except the guy in the Yankees hat)

    Man, everything. The way the walk, talk, dress, accessories, cars, facial hair, etc... It's usually a combination of things that will tip you off.

    Just some examples:
    - long beard, southern accent, U.S. flag on body or car
    - Sunglasses, goatee, and a sunburn
    - Confederate flag anywhere
    - Pickup truck, and goatee or long beard

    Well sure Murph. With all that info I agree ... But that is a lot more info than a selfie, which is what people claim in that meme.

    Lol, the only thing I have on this list of yours is a GMC 2500HD Denali Truck that most would love to have. But I would also add true loving and freedom loving Americans
    I guess Santa Clause is a Trump supporter by your guidelines

    Well, the meme is just a joke but I do think it’s accurate.

    Hey those were just some examples. There are many indicators. I could spot you as MAGA by the American flag Gator logo on your avatar.

    That’s from the team. It’s not the same. It’s at the point now that I’d avoid wearing or anything with an American flag on it, because unfortunately it’s been co-opted by a movement I don’t agree with. I would still raise a flag at my house, or of course I proudly wear it on my military uniform (where it must be worn). But I was driving in a neighborhood the other day and some guy had two huge American flags on poles on his property, a vinyl sticker on his car and some over the top 2A stuff with M-16s on it. It looked ridiculous. Sad that it’s come to this where the flag has a political connotation to it now.

    As you know Murph, i respect your opinion here on many things. Mike White included. ;) i just think this situation has been exaggerated. A lot of App/Florida/NFL etc fans buy that sticker because its cool, many are not Maga.

    I also am always willing to value a vets opinion on matters of the flag.

    Agree to disagree on the specifics brother. Merry Christmas and lets unite on NBN to educate the ignorant. :D

    I respect your opinion as well, Tilly. Personally, I don't really use the U.S. Flag in any other way than as an actual flag. I'm not a big fan of decorative flag usage, though I understand and respect people's decision to do otherwise. I do find it ironic that many of the uses which violate flag etiquette are committed by those who criticize others for disrespecting the flag. These people do the same with national anthem etiquette violations. I prefer to pleasantly surprise people with my patriotism as opposed to overdoing it with excessive displays.

    Hardly any of the people I hang out with look like those guys. I hang out with more interesting looking people.

    Agree. Anytime I see some dude wearing one of those black and grey American flag shirts it's a dead giveaway. The ironic thing is that it's often the least American of us who parade the flag around the most.

    What does an "interesting" person look like? No facial hair? No sunglasses?

    I mean that makes no sense.

    Ridiculous. I see it here all the time. (Hint. We live in a heavy military area with a gazillion young Marines). They all wear that stuff. We are also only 45 minutes from Ft Bragg and Camp LeJeune and the only city they can "escape" to on the weekends. Half the Marines I see are wearing the "Freedom" gear from Under Armour...or those shirts you mention.

    Lol... so much labeling going on in this thread.

    I have no idea why someone would hate on another American with an American flag on their vehicle.
