There's a difference between "villainous bulldog" and "association with them may get you shot in parts of america" (Appalachia IIRC)
Unfortunately, the swing to the right and the rise of shit like "Blue Lives Matter" has changed this in some places. When I was in the western part of Virginia for school, there was a local car dealership called "Pinkerton" and I saw their dealership license plate frames and emblem on a LOT of cars in the area. Many of those cars also had the Gadsden vanity plates and a bunch of blue lives matter, trump, etc. stickers on them.
