What flag has rattlesnake and says 'Don't tread on me'?
Positioned below the rattlesnake are the words "Don't tread on me". The flag is named after American general and statesman Christopher Gadsden (1724–1805), who designed it in 1775 during the American Revolution. It was also used by the Continental Marines as an early motto flag, along with the Moultrie Flag.
What was the phrase Don't Tread on Me?
Don't Tread on Me Flag (Gadsden Flag)First flown aboard a Colonial Troop ship on January 4th, 1776This was the flag of the American Colonies at the time of the American Revolution against England.It features a rattlesnake above the warning, "DON'T TREAD ON ME". The rattlesnake had become a traditional symbol of the American Colonies. The most obvious reason for this is that the rattlesnake was only found in the American Colonies (and in abundance, to the dismay of settlers) and nowhere else in the world. The origin of the slogan (Don't Tread On Me) pertains to the snake's deadly strike and the idea that it is best to leave them alone.The snake on the flag is also roughly arranged in the shape of the American Colonies with the tip of the tail being the Florida peninsula and the head being New England.Because of its connection with the original intention of the U.S. Constitution and the freedoms sought by the American Revolutionaries, this Flag has been informally adopted by many Libertarians and those seeking strict interpretations of the U.S. Constitution.Viper1The flag is still flown on the Jack Staff of all U.S. Navy ships during a time of conflict.

What does don't tread on me mean on the yellow flag?
"I am warning you... do not step on me!" The yellow flag with the words "Don't Tread on Me" also features a coiled rattlesnake. This flag is called the "Gadsden Flag" named after the South Carolina senator Christopher Gadsden who designed the flag in 1775-1776. This flag was then presented to the Continental Navy Commodore Esek Hopkins as his personal flag in early 1776. The "Don't Tread on Me" statement associated with a rattlesnake was common in Colonial America beginning in the 1760s. The idea of a rattlesnake came first from a letter published in a newspaper by Benjamin Franklin in 1754. Since the rattlesnake was not found in England it served as a vicious warning to the British Parliament. The rattlesnake much like Colonial America at the time would not strike unless provoked. Would send a warning first by rattling. And, if and when it struck the bite would be painful and sometimes deadly. This image of a coiled or running rattlesnake appeared on a number of flags during the Revolutionary War era: Proctor's Westmoreland County 1st Battalion from Pennsylvania, Sullivan's Life Guard of the Rhode Island Militia, The United Train of Artillery of Providence Rhode Island, Patrick Henry's Culpeper Minutemen from Virginia, the Gadsden flag, and the first Navy Jack flag.
