Don't Tread On Me

Back a long ass time ago when our Country was still being made into a working country and we were being botherd by the Brits. Ben Franklin thought that our country anamil should be the rattlesnake, like that on the flag that the songs based on, the gadsen flag. he said this for a number of reasons, The rattlesnake is only found in north america, a rattlesnake that he found once had 13 rattlers on his tail, when he shook one it made no sound, when he shook them all it was a sound that could make anyone stray away. the rattlesnake will not attack you unless it is threatend and has a good cause for it. but once it does fight you it will never surrender and show you who is boss, we wont start it but we will sure put up one hell of a fight and finish it. Most people with rattlesnakes eaither hate them or love them. I like them around becuase they kill all the mice. We fast and deadly in our attacks like the song says with all the tounge stuff. we shine great ness because we are a great people. A rattlesnakes eyes will never close because they cant see and they dont use them anymore(ben didnt know this at the time)but this shows that we never stop waching others so that we can be prepared for a war if it comes, an emblem of viglence. theres a few other reasons that he and others thought that it should be on the flag wich was comosed of a coild up rattlesnake that some what resembled the thirteen colonys and at the time(the head being new englanda and the tail Flordia or something like that) That made the rattlesnake a good national anmail being that were fine with you but if you walk or tread on us we will kick your ass. alot of the stuff in the song is quoted and quote modified from founding fathers like ben franklin, gorge washington and patrick henery. personaly i love the song in that i am very patriotic and willing to die in combat if my country needs it. and it is a very kickass song
