- It all started when Jaiden Rodriguez, a seventh grader at The Vanguard School, was told he had to remove all of the patches on his backpack or not to come back to class. The school says it allowed Jaiden to return to class and keep his 'Don't tread on me' flag patch on his backpack.

It doesn’t matter what people “think” it means. It matters what the flag actually means.
mehhh. Flags, like symbols, can change their meanings if they are used differently than originally intended, but I get what you're saying. Take the swastika, caduceus, or the Tennessee Army Battle Flag.
In this case, the history of the flag isn't what this woman is depicting. That being said, if people continue to alter the correlation this flag with continued use along side other banners with more explicit meanings, it could ultimately change the meaning of the Gadsden flag.
@@ryant115It changes the meaning to those who are too lazy to do research.
@@ryant115wrong… you can’t change the meaning of anything bud. The only people that can get away with that are democrats and the alphabet people. Don’t be that guy. This kid did nothing wrong and the family should be able to sue the brakes off that school district.
@@esotericoutcast641 So the swastika is just a Hindu good luck charm? Ok....
@@ryant115It can be lol, this is America, this wouldn't be an issue if it was a pride flag...
Teachers seem more keen on banning history rather than teaching it.
not in Florida, desantis is banning left and right
Yeah, riiiiiggghht. 🤣👌
@@sarahhayes3384what did he ban?
@@sarahhayes3384 books with pornography and sex should not be in elementary schools. Maybe you have some pedo beliefs, but keep that to yourself. Leave the kids alone.

The "Don't Tread on Me" flag has NOTHING to do with Slavery...in fact, to this day it's literally the motto on Virginia license plates. I live in New Hampshire with the motto "Live Free or Die" on our license plates...these are expressions of freedom coming from the Revolutionary War. That teacher and her administration need to be held accountable...
The spirit of America still lives! 🇺🇲
This is why I love living in Virginia, We have the most customizable license plates of any state. But so many liberals keep moving here and f**king everything up like they did in their own states.
Fellow New Hampshire man 😎
The school now needs to be held accountable in court for violation of constitutional rights.
They do need to be held accountable
So the student and the parent had to educate the teacher and principal. Imagine that!
Ridiculous! Thank you Jaiden!
That does not suprise me!
These teachers need to be forced to take a remedial history class. How in the world did they get their licenses?
Prosecute her for a hate crime. She is prejudiced against white boys
They got it through their oat to indoctrinate children.
The fact that this teacher conflated the Gadsden flag with slavery tells me there's nothing he can learn from this teacher
Stupid is as stupid does! That teacher needs to leave the teaching profession! She doesn’t know the true meaning of this Gadsden flag that was originated during the American revolution against the British rule over the 13 American colonies!!!!
It means slavery, because she says so
One could almost choke on the irony here. This public teacher attempted to arbitrarily take away a fundemental liberty by demanding the patch of the Gadsden flag be removed from that kid's backpack. The Gadsden flag, you know, symbolic for one's freedom and liberty in the face of tyranny.
Do you mean the freedom to own other human beings? The same founding fathers who virtue signaled about freedom and equality?
@clipclop15 it's okay to feel and be offended. Just as it's okay for you to interpret it this way. The OP has the meaning from it's inception right. Do not let BLM tread on you!

@matcha_milktea Oh yea?! WELL WE'RE F*CKING SICK AND TIRED OF THESE TYRANTS SAYING "JUST FOLLOWING ORDERS"
WAKE UP!!!
@@ThisisKyle It's much more than freedom of speech, it's freedom of thought. To tell a child that a flag used to rally the colonies against the oppression of England is bad has much bigger implications, and not simply for the kid with the flag. This message went to the entire class, instructing them what are good thoughts and what are bad thoughts.
@@matcha_milktea I taught in public school for a time, it's a cancer to our nation because teachers don't stand up for truth, they do as they are told. There was a big trial, in Germany, where a bunch of people claimed they were "just following orders". Ever hear about that?
I interpret the "don't tread on me" flag as warning governments to not overstep the bounds set by the citizens. Nothing racial about that at all.
It’s always funny to me that the same people who blindly back the blue also distrust and hate the government, as if police officers aren’t the enforcement arm of the government, with the ability to investigate internally by peers and colleagues in the brotherhood
That's exactly what it means.
What you mean like instructing you to wear a mask in the pandemic? Is that “overstepping”?
@@georgieman1910 It is..
@@matthewatwood8641 No it isn’t. It’s actually common sense.

Sad days in america when the students are smarter than the teachers!!
Been that way for decades now
Props to the mom for supporting this young man 🫡
The irony. They tread on him and his rights to force him into taking a sign down saying "Don't tread on me"...
That snake has been rattling a lot recently, they dare not make it bite.
It's simply a warning.... we'll have to see what happens. ;)
Hes in a private school. Charters are private schools. They're allowed to make their own rules and it's not protected by the american government.
@BigMeech935 The first amendment protects you from the government, learn basic shit like that
@@BigMeech935 School boards have nothing to do with charter or private schools.
I hope that wasn't a history teacher. Ignorance isn't bliss, its now education!
This wasnt the history teacher, but in fact the principal
You can't rewrite slavery no matter how hard the far right try.
She's the school director and that makes it worst. 😂😂😂
As a person in the position to know the factual history and teach it, regardless of what any ones ever did or didnt do that has picked one up, If she honestly believed what she said shes the one in a position to make sure the truth that it stands for human rights and the quick retaliation for the lack there of gets taught!. if any one of the flags they fly was to be lied about they would teach over and over and over for months on main stream media what there flag means. and you know im right!
This ignorant teacher needs to be disciplined for her actions. She absolutely humiliated herself and her school. So glad to see this kid ultimately won.
Makes me wonder how the "teacher" even got through elementary history class and not know what the Gadsden Flag is?
The district made her say it. The mom is in the wrong for posting this video.
@@matcha_milkteaNo she isn't
It has become a symbol for violent anti-government extremists in the US.
@@matcha_milktea No she isn't. If she had not shown it then the kid would have been brow beaten into removing it. Also, people need to know how bad it has gotten in the Public schools.
@@matcha_milkteaapparently you don't know your constitutional rights either!!! Freedom of the press is one of the 5 elements under the first amendment of the constitution!!! Not only was the mother correct for posting the story she is constitutionally protected for doing so!!!! The ignorance of this teacher and principal is why Americans are so uneducated on their rights, they are ignorant and are in charge of education yet have no idea what the Gadsden flag is and that they deprived that child of his rights!!!!!
Mom your child is a great boy 🙏☝️
Can I just say I’m quite impressed with the quality of how this local news station is addressing this issue? Thorough, dispassionate, additional context, and the appearance of impartiality and an unbiased presentation of information.
A shame larger, national news broadcasts don’t follow suit with similar practices.
Both mom and kid are awesome!!
Dims are so scared of inanimate objects.
Except for their inanimate dementia patient in the W.H..
Don’t tread on Jaiden
Well done Young Guy! True Americans are proud of you and your Family. God Bless You!
When you're so stupid that you don't even know you're stupid. Every 5th grader knows that "don't tread on me" is from the Revolutionary War.
Im guessing you havent been paying attention to what public schools have been teaching, Im positive the majority of kids in public schools in dem run states have no idea what that flag means.
The Gadsden flag originally was intended as a naval flag. The symbolism was meant to warn Great Britian not to trample the liberties of the colonists. If anything it represented a distrust of crown and had nothing to do with racism.
I live in Virginia and the DMV sells license plates with the Gadsen flag and logo.
Honestly, nobody is aware that you can literally option the Gadsden Flag as your license plate background in Virginia?
The irony of the teacher's car being covered in virtue signaling messages
In 1956 Russia’s Communist leader Nikita Khrushchev said, “We will take America without firing a shot. We do not have to invade the U.S. We will destroy you from within....”
Guess that teacher failed US history.
Im guessing about 70% of these so called teachers would fail it. Indoctrination is not education
Defund them…or you’ll be paying for the lawsuit.
Not in a private or charter school. This is why you should put your kids in public schools. Because then you actually have constitutional protection.
Defund your crack habit. I like how you try to be so edgy and shout "defund" like it's going to fix the issue. How about get rid of the morons and increase funding to more qualified and intelligent people that don't create stupid situations like this.
Rather than take away funding I think the board and principal need to be fired for spreading misinformation. Some people are not knowledgeable enough to know they DO RECEIVE PUBLIC FUNDING. Research shows IQ has steadily been falling. Schools like this, that teach misinformation, are the reason.
Deprivation of right to education and freedom of speech. Book the school principal and staff.
Every adult, involved with kicking him out, needs to fired immediately. Remind these activists, that the public in public employees means they work for us, the public.
Comes down to the school board. Pull an Antifa and find out where they live
That tells me a lot of how educated the teachers are. 🤔
The only one who is distrupting school are the teachers.
His backpack patches shows that he's a pretty awesome dude! 😃
We need more little revolutionaries who want to stand up for American's rights!
The "don't tread on me" is about pushing back against tyranny. Has nothing to do with slavery. People make everything "racist". This flag is a good one for all Americans, especially today.
Stand up for our rights
Just because idiots think it's offensive doesn't mean it is
Stand Tall, and Stand Proud Jaiden! Millions of Patriotic Americans are standing WITH you!
That kid got that “I just got my college paid for by these dumbasses” smirk down pretty good.
Way to stand up for yourself, Homie. Enjoy
If he's smart (which I'm betting he is) he'll invest that money or buy land with it.... college is worthless these days

@alcapone2523 I guess it depends really.... if I'm going through your resume and see that you went to Harvard, your resume is going in the trash and I'm moving on to the next one... because I want educated employees, not indoctrinated employees
That principal wrongly sent that student home from school for a day depriving him of his right to a public education. In turn the principal should not be sent home for the same period of time without pay, perhaps longer. Fair is fair.
When you use the “fair is fair” statement with the reds, if you want equality, then you’re pretty much asking for a fist fight. They are crazy. Everyone knows this. It’s best just to sue and expose...
This is bs you don’t even know the full story. The mom should have never posted this and the district made the principal enforce these rules to keep her job.
@@matcha_milkteait doesn't matter this is still a violation of that kid First Amendment right the principal should have said f my job and did the objectively correct thing
It isn't a right fool. You have to follow the dress code. Since the 80s the rules include political images, nudity or profanity. Kill em all patches on jackets were told to be removed. Same with dress codes on length of dresses or how much skin could be visible.
@ThisisKyle unfortunately hate speech is not allowed at PUBLIC schools.
That school needs to teach history instead of hate. According to PBS:
“The Gadsden flag was created during the Revolutionary War. In those days, the flag was a symbol of the nation that was flown aboard ships. You had to fly a flag or else you were a pirate. So, when we decided to revolt against the British, we commissioned ships to go to sea to fight them, we had to have a symbol.”
Even I didn’t know that. But I did know it had nothing to do with slavery. People need to stop scribbling all over our history and culture with their racist crayon. American history is for all Americans, the good, the bad and the ugly. It needs to be taught with the clear understanding that it is history, not present day.
But in 2014, the Obama Administration's EEOC declared that the flag could “sometimes interpreted to convey racially-tinged messages in some contexts,” It was not racist in its origins, but became racist based on the principle of "we say so".
@@Jim-Tuner
Shelton D vs US Postal Service.
“did not determine that the Gadsden Flag was racist or discriminatory, and did not ban it”.
From EEOC . Gov
But I see what you mean. Obama was big on sowing racial division. His magic pen caused a lot of trouble.
Nope.
The problem with the Gadsden Flag is not it's history of origin but how its being used and represented today. Take the Unite the Right Rally in Charlottesville, they were flying it along with Nazi and Confederate flags to defend slavery! You have the far right conservative movement to thank for the disgust over this flag and others such as the confederate flag as well.. Thos flags should not be represented among hate groups but since they are they are going to get stigmas.. It just is what it is..
@@trumpsucks5243 just because a handful of people see it that way doesn’t make it so. Everyone has the right to their opinion. The opinions of a few shouldn’t supersede facts. Teach truth and let people make their own judgements. If the media would stick to reporting facts without dramatizing everything, people wouldn’t be so divided. I realize that it’s the drama that sells, so I personally categorize some outlets as tabloid level. It’s those tabloid level types that are stirring everyone up under the guise of actual news.
So does that mean we aren't allowed to have cotton T-shirts, cotton pants, or anything else made out of cotton because slaves picked cotton..
What else from that day can we ban.. Tobacco, slaves grew tobacco too, gotta ban tobacco products..
Cotton clothing is definitely racist and oppressive.
@@gamedude1838 don't forget we gotta ban trains in America now, since those were built by slaves.
good on then for standing up and for even posting this in the first place
I have 2 flags, my American flag🇺🇸 and " Don't tread on me ", good for you young man.
I am a senior citizen and I had no idea about the Gadsden Flag and was glad I educated myself on it. I was in the Military and was at a Leadership School in 1976 and did my Speech on the history of the United States Flag. I never knew about the Gadsden Flag back then either.
You guys block comments not cool.
Yep. If it offends a lib, it's gone. A poledancer's orders.
I am so happy my mom decided to homeschool me
Let's make a Don't tread on me day. And show up to this school all wearing Gadsden shirts and patches!!!
But seriously, we need to ask what is being taught by teachers . This is what an educator is saying. We really have some education issues we need to addressed now!
the education at The Vanguard School is fine; however, the teachers are what should be in the question
@jessebarros6194 Absolutely. But that the bigger question is how many more teachers had this same false knowledge. Second, we really have an education issue in America. The governor did step in and the board sent retraction letter and an apology.
It wasn't a disruption to the classroom. It was a disruption to the "teachers"
How does any school district hire teachers so ignorant of history. Also, where are these patches showing weapons?
They’re treading on the snake 🐍 😂
The Gadsden Flag is NOT a symbol of hate, and the flag's origin was not born in support of slavery!
Your channel is either lying or were lied to by the school about Jaiden having semiautomatic weapons on his backpack. It's obvious because the teacher NEVER mentioned anything about guns at all, and she certainly would have used this to attempt to prove that she was justified in her egregious behavior. The only "weapons" on the kid's backpack were a sword in two of the patches, one of which was part of a crest. Incidentally, the two swords were mentioned as "weapons" in the email between school officials, but at NO time did ANYONE mention semiautomatic weapons, EXCEPT YOUR FALSE REPORTS.
Your news team failed miserably by NOT fact-checking your false narrative before announcing it to the public.
Another reason why no one trusts mainstream media. You all can't help yourself but to lie every chance you get!
The media work for Satanists. Either they are ignorant of this or have sold their souls.
Most teachers today are WOKE idiots. Pathetic. No wonder our country is another Babylon.
Jaiden for Governor!
The school Admin flailing her arms while she spews her misinformation reminds me of a liberal (WOKE) Budlight Exec. giving her explanation for her bad actions/decisions ! Yet look at the fine young man that is confident very clean cut and respectful. His parents should be very proud! Gives hope for our youth!
It's a shame we have to politicize our children at such a young age, but such is the world we now live in. No more fence sitting
Now if he had a rainbow flag…
…which essentially supports/confirms sexual preferences and has much more ground for being deemed inappropriate in a school; that patch is allowed 😔
Got a 'don't tread on me' VA license plate. The flag & saying doesn't represent hate, but defiance to those who try to take from others things such as our rights & freedoms. Kids just like patches that look cool.
U mean his parents like the patches and wanted to pin it on him to make him look cool

Why did the school being up the semi-automatic patches? If hat isn't what the teacher was complaining about she said the Gadseden flag was based in slavery 🤔
There is no association between that flag and slavery beyond the fact that parts of the US had slavery during the revolutionary war. By that logic any symbol from the revolutionary war is “racist”
Where exactly are the semi automatic weapons on this kids backpack? You can clearly see all the patches and the only weapon there is a sword.
Even if it was true and he removed them, the schools statement mentioning those particular patches is such an obvious attempt at painting the child/family badly. Like they’re saying, you think he’s the good guy? Look, he had g*n patches! Isn’t that terrible?😂
This mom seems sharp and knows what she’s talking about and she is on now way seeming to be coerced by anyone to speak her mind. (Referring to a comment made by someone else accusing her of being influenced by her “toxic male spouse”. I bet she has an awesome husband! She seems cool.

I don’t see a problem with the pictures of semiautomatic weapons. I remember being young and liking guns and being told not to tell anyone because people will think your violent, well now I say liking guns doesn’t mean you are violent or are going to do anything bad, this is ridiculous, the only thing I can think is they want to taboo guns so they can take them away easier. Maybe they don’t like the Gadsden flag because it represents resistance to tyranny and an over bearing government, maybe that is the problem.
whats the school name and number?
Wise parents get their children out of the public school system.
"Continental Colonel Christopher Gadsden represented South Carolina in the Congress, and he was one of seven members of the Marine Committee outfitting the first naval mission. Paul Aron described Gadsden as a "leading advocate of an American navy." The first Marines carried drums painted yellow and depicting a coiled rattlesnake with thirteen rattles along with the motto "Don't Tread on Me." This is the first recorded mention of the flag's symbolism" Christopher Gadson died August 28, 1805. Fairly sure that predated the civil war.
No one said the people at the EEOC are the sharpest knives in the drawer. Keep wearing patch kid and if you need the flag itself, I am sure somebody can get you one.
Good for him and his parents for not backing down to their authority. That patch is very representative of them treading on his rights.
I hope they sue or get the teacher and principal fired
Kudos to this young gentleman. It's pretty funny because he's the only one that really understands what the flag means in that school. That flag had nothing to do with slavery. It was a warning to the British empire to not violate the liberties of the new colonies. The flag had nothing to do with the civil war and had everything to do with the Revolutionary war. Now the flag is a symbol for people to stay aware and vigilant of government overreach and not letting the government violate or take away our rights.
Even Polis didn’t have a problem with it. Thank you, Governor polis!
The entire faculty of that school must all be fired and banned from education.
There is no education anymore its all government indoctrination. Be a good lil drone
It's terrible, the Gadsen Flag is a symbol of the revolution. It's a great symbol and shouldn't be banned.
The failed revolution, more of a joke of history at this point
It's a symbol of exactly what just happened.
Honestly, fire the teacher. That is the best possible message to send.
Apparently this “teacher” has never heard of the Gadsden Flag or the First Amendment. Is this who you want teaching your children?
The Gadsden flag shows a coiled rattlesnake against a yellow background, with origins in the American Revolution - a symbol of colonial unity against British oppression, according to Britannica. It was flown above the U.S.S. Alfred during the war. “It has nothing to do with slavery. The teacher is misspoken and did not do a shred of research before following the officials within the school. I hope the mother sues. I can understand removing patches with firearms in a school setting.
Patches? Nope. No mention of patches, just a patch.
Very Regarded mother and young man! Good on them both. Loved her reasoning "saying no don't bow down to the government".
I actually go to that school, and the principle for the junior high has always seemed really karen like. Not to mention, she mentioned about the flag having high relations to slavery and slave trade, even though this dates back to the american revolution, used as a warning against britain, by Benjamin Franklin himself, no not overstep the boundaries of america. The principle claims to be educated but provides false information during that meeting. Pulling the poor kid out of many classes over a patch was an irresponsible and unwarranted action. being that the school gives a lot of homework, this could put large stress onto this kid. for a patch. if you ask me this has got to be full of irony.
Prob not
If you go to this school then you should know that she is an amazing principal and the district made her say those things and enforce those rules. An email was sent out later that day from the district explaining it all and that the principal is not in the wrong here.
