My ancestors played critical roles in the American Revolutionary War. I am told to take pride in this.

So if I'm supposed to be proud that my ancestors overthrew the government, killing a bunch of people in the process, does this mean that such behavior is admirable and therefore it would be morally right for me to attempt to overthrow the government, killing a bunch of people in the process?

No wonder America is the way it is . . .

My ancestors also took part in the Revolution and yes killing scumbags is okay. If you do decide to take on the Government don't be stupid and send them "come get me notes", stick to praxis and run up a high scorecard because the Federal Govt. does not EVER give points for merciful acts. Happy hunting! :lol:

Whenever someone tells me to look for a woman with a good personality, I remind them that there are no women with a good personality. :P
