    I’ve put up with a few years of shit from brits bitching about how weak “yanks” (Americans) are for allowing things to happen.

    come on limeys, show us Americans how it’s done! show us how to fix your government! no complaints either!

    looks at the rest of Europe

    you’re next, don’t be laughing.

    edit: oh yeah, this is world news not limey news. go post this on the BBC, nobody wants to hear about your problems.

        I interpreted their commend as aggressive encouragement for people to fight for their rights, which I find kinda goofy and nice.

        I misinterpret stuff a lot though, how did they actually mean it?

        why would I be angry? I’m simply returning the kindness the limeys have given us yanks for the last year.

      Haha those “limeys” (haven’t heard that in a good while) are deluded if they think the situation is any better here, or that people are any better at standing up for themselves here. The only edge we have is that generally people don’t have guns to win arguments with.

        Counterpoint: Generally the State is the only one allowed to win arguments with guns, knowing few would contest them. :(
