Mix American and Mexican flag shirt

American Flag
After the American Revolution began, the first, unofficial national flag—known as the Continental Colours (or, sometimes, as the Grand Union Flag, the Cambridge Flag, the Somerville Flag, or the Union Flag)—was hoisted on a towering 76-foot (23-metre) liberty pole at Prospect Hill in Charlestown (now in Somerville), Massachusetts, on January 1, 1776; it was raised at the behest of Gen. George Washington, whose headquarters were nearby. The flag had 13 horizontal stripes (probably of red and white or of red, white, and blue) and, in the canton, the first version of the British Union Flag (Union Jack). As the flag of the Continental Army, it flew at forts and on naval vessels. Another popular early flag, that of the 1765 Sons of Liberty, had only nine red and white stripes. Various versions of “Don’t Tread on Me” coiled-rattlesnake flags appeared on many 18th-century American colonial banners, including several flown by military units during the Revolutionary War. The version carried by the Minutemen of Culpeper County, Virginia, for example, included not only the rattlesnake and the “Don’t Tread on Me” motto but also Virginia patriot Patrick Henry’s famous words “Liberty or Death.”

Mexican Flag
The Mexican flag consists of three vertical bands in green, white, and red, with the Mexican coat of arms in the center of the white band. The coat of arms portrays a golden eagle perched on a prickly pear cactus and gripping a snake in its beak and talons. The flag's proportion is 4:7; although the flag of Italy has the same colors, its proportions are 2:3, and the Mexican flag is differentiated by the shade of the colors, the symbol in the center, and its aspect ratio. The Mexican flag, along with the Mexican coat of arms (escudo nacional) and the Mexican national anthem, is considered one of the sí­mbolos patrios, or "patriotic symbols" of Mexico, and thus commands great respect from Mexicans. 
 
The current national flag was adopted on September 16, 1968, and was confirmed by law on February 24, 1984.

He raced around the perimeter of the cave, looking for any irregularity in the walls. There were four Be kind all live don't matter until black lives matter 3D hoodie insets into the walls, little alcoves. He went from one to another. The final one, the fourth, he discovered not a door but a trapdoor handle. An iron ring set into the stone. “Aha!” he shouted. “I found something! The creature lumbered at him again, and he had to escape to the other side of the room quickly. His heart pounded with excitement. I am all right so far,” he answered, moving around behind it again, drawing it away from the hole. “This creature is massive. It is slow, but very strong. I do not see any treasure here.” The reddish glare of the light revealed nothing but walls. Click to Buy it: Be kind all live don't matter until black lives ...

[Cheapest] The first pride was a riot face mask

The first pride was a riot Much was hidden in the shadows. He was expecting a Paracelsus study, but there were no tables or flasks or cauldrons. No aging books. The floor was made from stone tiles, each one cut and fashioned into a grid-like surface. Beyond the dusty haze of light, he could see very little. Paedrin snorted. “A friendly spirit you’ve found. How touching. Well, I suppose we should get started.” He approached the lip of the hole, peering down into darkness. He quickly sucked in some breath, feeling himself start to float like the stone itself. Then he stepped over the hole and slowly let his breath out, descending gradually, floating down like a speck of gossamer web. There was a shaft of light coming from the gaping hole, revealing a depth to the chamber as he descended. The first pride was a riot face mask It was a cave, nature-made, probably three times as tall as his full height. It expanded away in every direction, making the hole the apex of the chamber. Paedrin flo...

Personalized hookin ain't easy “No, you have it wrong. The lights on the walls. The orbs. Touch them. Cover them with your hands or a cloak. Quickly, Bhikhu! Cover the one behind you!” Paedrin thought the Preachán was daft. Cover the orb? But he remembered that the lights had illuminated the room as soon as he touched the ground. As fast as he could, he rushed to the nearest orb and smothered its light with his hands. The other two! Erasmus called. Annon! Hettie! Cover the other two! Hettie rushed across the room and used her cloak to smother the second one. The creature had turned from her and started across the room, but its movements slowed as the light faded. He gritted his teeth, waiting for a crushing blow to come at him. The room dimmed. The creature slowed and turned away from Paedrin, coming at Annon and Hettie.
