I'm willing to step up, but you have to give me time to see your post

.

I love the history behind the flag, it was very interesting. I don't know about the others, but I was rolling my eyes at this part: Beginning in 2009, the flag became a popular display by protesters who are members of the Tea Party movement. It was also seen being displayed by members of congress on March 20 and 21, 2010 at pro-liberty reform rallies.


I don't care for the Tea Party or what they want to accomplish.

Boyd...

Remember that chat about how we adore each other, often see the same things as problems, but never have the same solutions?

yep, nothing's changed here either.

Still love you, misguided cracker that you are.

This is what I already knew, and how the 13 rattles represent.....

The use of the timber rattlesnake as a symbol of the American colonies can be traced back to the publications of Benjamin Franklin. In 1751, he made the first reference to the rattlesnake in a satirical commentary published in his Pennsylvania Gazette. It had been the policy of Britain to send convicted criminals to America, so Franklin suggested that they thank the British by sending rattlesnakes to England.
