Happy Treason Day Ungrateful Colonials 4th Of July T-Shirt

Product Information

Today, we celebrate the 244th anniversary of the Founding Fathers signing the Declaration of Independence.

However, the average French citizen resented having to foot the bill for bailing out those pesky American colonials, so they overthrew their monarchy and killed the king. And by doing so, you learn that the early American colonists REALLY WERE a bunch of ungrateful colonials. The King of France, still licking his wounds from France's loss to England, gave the American colonists the money to do so.
