'Battle Hymn of the Republic' (Steffe-Howe)

"We are a people who do not want to keep much of the past in our heads. It is considered unhealthy in America to remember mistakes, neurotic to think about them, psychotic to dwell on them." - Lillian Hellman

"America's greatest strength, and its greatest weakness, is our belief in second chances, our belief that we can always start over, that things can be made better." - Anthony Walton

Well let's see. Slavery is a European institution as was the first concentration and death camp centuries ago. That is also the continent which gave the globe two violent world wars, a slew of dictators, communism, fascism, and socialism. Am I thankful that I am an American? You bet your ass I am. I thank God every day that people like Washington, Jefferson, Adams, and Franklin had the balls and the guts to stand up and beat the British bullies and colonial oppressors.

Happy Fourth of July!

America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.

Slavery was present in all humans societies and the slaves and slave owners were often kinsmen: when european sailors arrived to western Africa in the XVth century slavery was already there; stablish by arabs but also by Local African lords who sold their kinsmen into slavery to the european traders...of course this does not excuse the european and muslim slave traders: both the european slaveb traders and the African Lords slave sellers share responsibility

@debprmdc Holy crap, you're one helluva creation lol. American-Italian-Scottish-Cher­okee. :D

@JackaWilko I disagree with your statement. England and France were directly responsible for World War II. Due to the harsh war reparations that punished the Weimar Republic after World War I ended, the Germans never could have reasonably paid off their debt that the English and the French imposed onto them.

Woodrow Wilson asked the UK and France to go easy on Germany, but your politicians did not listen. Economic oppression. That is why the Nazi Party came to power in 1933.

@SnickleFritz79 Thanks, we appreciate it since most of us say 'fuck you' to every other country on the planet every other day and that's when we're not cursing our fucked up leaders (Yes I'm English [and damn proud] and yes we made mistakes, a shit load). But I must stop you, you're blaming us for your people buying the slaves? We only did it to get rich and more powerful, and everyone sees different people in a different light and what most of you are suggesting says that only WE started racism

[JackaWilko]

@TortoiseWayfarers As right as you are, remember we're still your oversea cousins, we got your back like you've had ours.. for.. around 100 years. Still, we brought most of the shit into the world yea but we were powerful and we've every right to remain proud of that, strongest navy for hundreds of years then we went bloody bankrupt. Also WW1 was barely our fault, WW2 was a joint blame kind of thing
