All militias are composed of private citizens. That is the very definition of a militia whether government provides the arms or they use their own.

And if the people in control decide to shut you up. What then Sherlock?

Africans didn't build these places, the ships that carried slaves to the Americas or the plantations they were forced to work.

So you have no problem buying stolen goods because you didn't steal them. In fact would also have no problem employing thieves to steal them for you. You obviously have no problem with slavery or the reasons for employing it.

Neither has a sterling record but it was the Liberals who were tone deaf enough force unification.

Liberal incompetence when it comes to understanding the military is nothing new, one only has to think back to unification.

It was for the Europeans who came here.

So a third generation Asian Canadian has no homeland. FN would say you better get your ass back to Europe whitey.

So if you knowingly buy stolen goods, you are off the hook because you didn't steal them and the fact the thief wouldn't have any customers if people like you didn't buy them is of no consequence. You are a sad person. Very sad.

Sort of. Charles I basically claimed the divine right of kings and Parliament disagreed. To make a long story shorter, they had a civil war, the king lost ended up losing his head. The country was governed as a commonwealth under Cromwell until he croaked and Parliament decided to restore the monarchy under Charles son, Charles II (The Merry Monarch) who was relatively harmless. When he croaked, he was succeeded by his brother James II who pissed off Parliament again and tried to return the country to Catholicism. They ran him off and brought over William and Mary from the House of Orange in the Netherlands. The supremacy of Parliament was never seriously challenged since.

The polar opposite of Trump.

Doesn't matter the reason. Slavery is slavery, to say Europeans were not responsible for Africans being enslaved in the Americas because we killed off most of the FN with our diseases is just ridiculous. Europeans never intended to do any of those jobs.

All true but they weren't the reason for slavery in the Americas, they just enabled it.

Interesting, can you provide some kind of link to that or tell us were you found it?

My wife and I never had separate accounts, we were a team.

So superior you can't participate in a conversation without calling names. When you get past the sand box and kindergarten, let us know because the present version is like talking to a toddler in a tantrum.

You are a tool who thinks the most insults wins.

For someone who claims to be well educated, one wonders what passes for education in Florida because it seems to turn out people who can't have a discussion without name calling and abuse. You really do come across as a mo- ron who has no other tools.

Exactly, you started with a conclusion and call anyone who disagrees with you names. That is not a discussion is just being an ahole. But hey, that's all you ever do.

It was the Continental Army and French troops and the defeat of a reinforcing fleet by the French navy. We have a similar myth in Canada that the American invasion of 1812 was defeated by Canadian militias when in reality most of the heavy lifting was done by British regulars and natives.

The French supplied money and material almost from the beginning and French ground forces were operating with the Americans from 1779. The French also tied down British forces in the rest of the world. It was a French naval victory that prevented Cornwallis from being reinforced at Yorktown and forced his surrender.

When was that? The revolutionary war was won by an army with a lot of help from the French.

Exactly, religious zealots don't differ much.

No you didn't, you started with a claim not a question.

Thanks for making my point.
