The quotes got all fucked up somehow. It doesn't matter. This is all about the memory of that gutsy American pilot. I think we also need to mention the pilot of the aircraft he shot down. Most of those brave German pilots were not Nazis, and at that stage of the war, I bet they were probably wondering just how many fighters the allies could put up. They were in it to the end with no rotations, and they were fighting on two fronts. It would not be long before the allies had complete control of the sky. Indeed (.)Y(.)

Thanks .. But isn't it always inevitable that the larger (or certainly Stronger) group takes the power and "the People" .. (even if thrown the 'Democratic' bone to chew on) are actually just pawns with little or no real say? Has there ever been a True Democracy - can there ever be? (.)Y(.)

YAWN..

Right.... I think there's something that you and Quade and a few other Americans don't understand about the general British view of American history: we simply don't care. Honestly and truthfully, you would find it incredibly difficult to find a British man on the street who bears any sort of grudge, humorous or serious, over the War of Independance. Heck, most people probably don't even know it was us you were fighting against. Britain simply has too much history for us to get worked up about every country or colony we've ever fallen out with. America? Don't care. India? Don't care. Spain? Don't care. South Africa? Don't care. The only two countries that any reasonable number of people in Britain 'dislike' for historical reasons are France and Germany. That's it. When it comes to America, the secret is that we actually quite like it. It's big and brash and loud and that's pretty cool. We dislike a lot of Americans because you're big and brash and loud, but that's another story I don't think you are a troll. In fact, that's a pretty honest assessment. It's always been amazing to me that Britain and the Colonies separated after a bloody war, and yet Britain ended up our biggest ally afterward. I love Brits, and I think their NHS health care system beats Obamacare by a mile. Battle of Britain is my favorite war film. Americans whine about 9-11, which was bad of course, but they sometimes forget Brits stood against the Germans for more than two straight months of bombing and beat the pants off the Germans in the end anyway. Later, they beat off the V-1 and V-2 rocket attacks as well. When you look up the word 'tough' in the dictionary you'll probably find a picture-map of Britain there. You gotta love it.

Spot on Some of them are so paranoid, it makes me laugh my tits off. This thread is a clear example.. no one is allowed to start a discussion - because it's ALWAYS seen by the feeble minded few as anti-American FFS. Plus .. the kind of people who shout TROLL ...bwhaaaaa.. just don't realise how stupid it makes them sound I just can't take them serious at all, they have zero to add. I couldn't care less what they say. (.)Y(.) Chivalry is not dead; it only sleeps for want of work to do. - Jerome K Jerome

So the poor don't get as much say as, say the lieing politicians and bankers (i.e those the have caused most of the harm in recent years) .. Not sure that I like that plan much. ... on the other had the people who don't pay their fair share of taxes because they can utilise loop-holes.. wont get much of a say either (the better part of the plan) (.)Y(.)

Great post - thanks. So, how do you identify the folks who are disenfranchised and then how do you rectify that situation ... N.B it 'may' not be in the interest of those responsible to make those changes. Also, can you measure the size of the "we are NOT the people" group (.)Y(.)

Once again it was not troll .. your clear lack on understanding of this (and other) conversations - says way more about you. If you don't like it .... well, that's your problem not mine. (.)Y(.) Chivalry is not dead; it only sleeps for want of work to do. - Jerome K Jerome
