it's weird..my mom lives in Camden,sc. and it seems to be a ''city'' that is stuck in the past. It's time Camden gets with the real world and starts to bring in industry and jobs that way there might not be so many negro's farting around 24/7.

@BritainF0rever Yet the brits still lost the war.

[BritainF0rever]

@ProTuner06 That is still the argument today; because in Military terms, Britain won. Less casulties, less ammunition fired, more land gained (Canada) and we had to fight against some 6 other Nations in this war and we had the least amount of men. But in political terms we lost as Parliament no longer gouverned the Colonies. I presume you are American but I may be mistaken. Anyway I hope I am not starting an argument.

To bad for them that Britain won, ey?

[ProTuner06]

@BritainF0rever yet......lost the war.
