DON'T TREAD ON ME T-Shirt
The coiled rattle snack as a symbol for the American Spirit can be traced back to Benjamin Franklin who used the image to promote the idea that America's growing weariness of British rule and unbridled determination to stand tall, never giving up. In 1775, Franklin penned the following: "I recollected that her eye excelled in brightness, that of any other animal, and that she has no eye-lids—She may therefore be esteemed an emblem of vigilance.—She never begins an attack, nor, when once engaged, ever surrenders: She is therefore an emblem of magnanimity and true courage.—As if anxious to prevent all pretensions of quarreling with her, the weapons with which nature has furnished her, she conceals in the roof of her mouth, so that, to those who are unacquainted with her, she appears to be a most defenceless animal; and even when those weapons are shewn and extended for her defence, they appear weak and contemptible; but their wounds however small, are decisive and fatal:—Conscious of this, she never wounds till she has generously given notice, even to her enemy, and ed him against the danger of treading on her.—Was I wrong, Sir, in thinking this a strong picture of the temper and conduct of America?" Since roughly that time, the Gadsden Flag was used by our Navy (and later our Marines). Accompanied by the words "DON'T TREAD OF ME" the flag embodies the spirit of America's struggle for revolution then as much as it does the new struggle for liberty and the TEA Party movement today.

Delivery was just on the last day's of Delivery estimate,but within E.T.A just,So No complaints.Cotton is of Good Quality.Fit is Prerfect to 5% bigger. Very Good but Not perfect,but at Ordering would have taken V.Good AnyDay!!Only Slight thing(as NO Bleeding,NO Smudging or ANY probs with acctual writing,is that the Red/Black and T-Shirt Colour isn't as Bold/Bright as in picture.BUT! When i took pic's of T-Shirt on my Phone for this review,it again looked like Bolder/Brighter Colours by 10-15% than in reality.......

I really like the design but I'm not sure the white base really took as you can see pink through her fur/bikini. So that was a little disappointing. That's more on the printing side though than the actual design, the design is really great, Cutey Bunny looks so beautiful! If you're thinking of getting this then I'd say just go for a white T-shirt and you should be fine.
