Since America was a British colony when the Revolutionary War took place, did we really beat the British?

Or did the Brits just kick their own as$es?

    I should have put this in the joke section, I think. My British friend likes to spin it this way whenever American holidays roll around.

    How ironic that "we", the descendants of those who fought to liberate themselves from tyranny, just elected a tyrannical lunatic as president!

    The bloody British.   They have killed more people than the bloody Christians.

    They liked to conquer stuff.  Just like the bloody Christians.

    Both need to stay home and relax.   And Amerika is their spawn. This post was edited by WM BARR . =ABSOLUTE TRASH at July 3, 2017 8:56 PM MDT
