I'm not rude man, and I'm loathe to resort to the Anglo Saxon vernacular, especially outside of NAAFI. However you prickwipe, you sir, are a spasticated cunt, a mongoloid of the first water and a general all round bore. Stick that up your (lower) jumper. You arsewiping fuckstick.
Now be a good egg and shout your blousy Hoowar shite on your favourite (correct spelling) US airborne (82nd?) site. You wanky little toads leg.If you are an ex-serviceman or woman who wants to network mutual commercial interests, you can PM me for an invite to join the new ARRSE Business Group.

Not so much pain, as ridicule. Perhaps we were a little too harsh on you, we should have realised that you have no friends or a life of your own. A little tip for you, observe JJH's style and try to be more imaginative and constructive in your posts, you will of course have a long way to catch up, but it's worth a try.

Ah yes, that one.
Oddly enough I was actually discussing that in the Massachusetts Military Reservation last year.
The good men of the Rhode Island National Guard where very proud to show me their Battle Streamers from Lexington and Concorde.
I reminded them that it was the local Brits who beat the Brits at the end of a 3000 mile supply chain.
With the help of the French.
The subject was not mentioned again.Bravo Bravo sets himself a depressingly low standard which he consistently fails to achieve.

Slavery was not just in the American Colonies, it was in Britain during the same time, so lets not kid ourselves that you were liberators. By the way ever hear of the 1st Rhode Island regiment? about 1/4 of the Continentals were black
The Revolution's Black Soldiers
Crispus Attucks, a free Black Sailor was shot in Boston by redcoats on Mar 5th, 1770
William Wilberforces Slave Trade act of 1807 abolished trade in Slaves in Britain but did not free them.
47 Geo. III, Sess. 1 cap. 36
The Slavery Abolition act of 1833 freed Slaves in Britain.
3&4 Will. IV, cap. 73
the USA didnt free slaves completly until 1865
The Constitution of the United States: Amendments 11-27
theres only a 32 year difference

George Washington kept slaves.
As the US proclaimed to the world that all men are created equal and entitled to liberty - she at the same time held 1/5 of her population in lifelong slavery. George Washington led America to freedom while at the same time personally owning hundreds of slaves.Last edited by Bravo_Bravo; 06-10-2011 at 22:03.

Because slavery in Britain had been abolished hundreds of year before. It was ilegal to have slaves in Britain. His act abolished the trade in slaves.
And Mississippi only ratified it in 1995.The court case of 1569 involving Cartwright who had bought a slave from Russia ruled that English law could not recognise slavery. This ruling was overshadowed by later developments, but was upheld by the Lord Chief Justice in 1701 when he ruled that a slave became free as soon as he arrived in England.
And the story of Paul Revere is total crap as well.He's an absent-minded beggar,
and his weaknesses are great
