How are hippies fine with the US declaration of independence. It nothing but crying and whining with an entire section that is hate for Savages. Its way worse than any flag could ever be. But it was written to inspire militias to sign up and fight. So you tell them what they want to hear. But after Independence George Washington did a lot of genocidal raids. So the hate for the savages was a real thing. But if Americans ever actually concentrated about there complete history and not just the parts that they want to complain about they would never get anything done. Every country has its historical wrongs. There is no reason that the Confederate flag can not be reinvented as a symbol of change in the south and a brighter future of cooperation. But that would give people one less thing to be upset about. Hate for savages? I'm just gonna assume muskrat got some super strong firewater

Yeah more or less what I just said. Google the Declaration of Independence if you don't believe me. I bet it is nothing like you think it is. It's just a long list of complaints the colonists had against the king. I'm certain they were all valid complaints. It is definitely a product of its time. If Nick Cage actually read the thing I doubt he would have bothered going to all the trouble it took to steal the thing. Got any examples of your peoples great writings or contributions from the 18th Century?

Most likely his people were too busy fighting off a genocide to write much down

When and where did you learn how to speak liberal?

For me, its a little bit of a conundrum. As ya'll know, I am a Kraut but live in east Tennessee. I was in the German forces way back when Jesus was a cowboy, " defending" the west from the evil communist forces .... or so i was told. ...... Now those very communist forces are trying to run the government of the country that I live in, that used to be a member of the NATO pact but is now giving away weapons to terrorist organizations. That leads me to the only logical conclusion for me. ..... Protect me and my family from anyone or anything that is trying to infringe on our freedom. I know some twat on here will come up with the anchor wife BS and whatnot ..... let them ... no skin of my nose. Never would have thought of it but now that you mention it.............
