But you're spread out in the world, a Canada there, Australia way down there... But we're crammed in a third of a peninsula :dead:
Like little children arguing over a pillow and dreaming how good it was when the bones on the bed were still alive

We don't even own bones to argue over these days :doh:

God save the Queen! :salute:

Congratulations your Majesty you just inherited £9.4 billion in debt! :yeah:

Thanks for that...as a newly admitted member to the Florida Bar, I really appreciate comments like those.

Maybe I should not bother to visit these forums. After all, no one "gives a rats crap what [I] think." :nope:

That being said, this is a pretty inane thing to argue about...illegal or not, the U.S. isn't going back to British possession, so who cares?

That was pretty much the point of it.

A rebellion is always legal in the first person, such as "our rebellion." It is only in the third person - "their rebellion" - that it becomes illegal.
From the movie 1776. :D

That's pretty much how it works :)

Same for the Civil War and WWII.

This is turning into the best thread since the WW hunt.

Did the Founding Fathers have any respect for the law?

The Declaration emerged from the second Continental Congress.
