I just get a box with a red cross in it in your reply. I checked Google and found that the Gadsden flag is the Revolutionary War flag with the rattlesnake and "Don't Tread on Me." No connection with the Gadsden purchase (except that person the flag is named for was a relative of the man who arranged the Gadsden purchase, I believe).
Actually, the Gadsden flag is quite appropriate nowadays when we are struggling with modern-day Copperheads (American leftists like Michael Moore who have a de facto alliance with the Islamo-fascists).
