Washington D.C.: American actor Chris Pratt is under fire after he stepped out in a controversial T-shirt. The 'Avengers: Endgame' star was photographed on Sunday wearing a Gadsden T-shirt flag, featuring the American flag with a coiled rattlesnake in front of it with the text, "Don't tread on me," reported Page Six.

The Gadsden flag was created by American general Christopher Gadsden during the 1775 Revolutionary War. It was meant to symbolise liberty and freedom. In the last few years, the flag has been revived by the Tea Party. The Gadsden flag depicts a coiled rattlesnake over a message that reads, "Don't Tread on Me."
