It's nowhere near the best of anthems anyway, especially with its stupid and outdated fighting/war theme. Between that and that 18th century piece of bum paper, is it any wonder that these things are happening over there? |

I never would have put Murderer/rapist/child molester AND families fleeing religious persecution in the same category. But neither would you, since you missed the target completely. you are correct...England probably did send convicts to the US...an already established country...... Mopar, or NO car. |

.England probably did send convicts to the US...an already established country...... Hmm... By 1776 the USA wasn't an already established country. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penal_transportation England transported its convicts and political prisoners, as well as prisoners of war from Scotland and Ireland, to its overseas colonies in the Americas from the 1610s until early in the American Revolution in 1776. |

Oh my... An 11 year old girl sentenced to death for stealing clothes - only commuted to a life sentence in Australia - because at the time her sentence was handed down - our King was quite quite mad, is the kind of justice the poor and disadvantaged of the UK had dished out to them. The ignorance in those few words of yours is palpable. I won't even mention the children, taken from single mothers (many widowed) that were shipped from England's shores to Australia in the last century - and still well within living memory.It's nowhere near the best of anthems anyway, especially with its stupid and outdated fighting/war theme. |

After England stopped transporting convicts to the US, many US land owners complained about the lack of new cheap labour and therefore they went looking elsewhere. And that elsewhere was Africa. |

I guess the lesson here is, don't steal clothes when the king is mad, huh? Or maybe just don't steal clothes? So being poor and/or 'disadvantaged' means is "KIND OF" ok to steal. Gotcha. Although, I remember being pretty broke early on, getting food stamps etc. I don't remember stealing anything though. Hmmm Must be my "white privilege" that got me to where I am. Mopar, or NO car. |

My guess is, they got away with it, because it was acceptable in their world, and they didn't have to worry about a bunch of middle-aged neckbeards sitting around on social media, critiquing their every decision 200 years prior. Mopar, or NO car. |

Food stamps and almost every other benefit were only introduced in the 20th century. Try staying alive and keeping your family alive with no home and no income of any kind, as they had to do . |

Just think how much happier Trump and his kind would be if the cheap imported low cost labour had been from England and the rest of Europe instead of slaves from (in Trump's words) "sh*thole countries in Africa" |

themoj0 what a sad series of posts. Your insight is something to behold. Quite the opposite :D What is sad, is everyone constantly blaming the actions of others, for their own problems or shortcomings. Me? I take full responsibility for where I have ended up in life. Not just because its a good place. I have my opinion of things in this world. Others have their own. If you think that an 11 year old stealing clothes 100 years ago, or whatever, has anything to do with why a spoiled athlete is disrespecting the symbol of his country, well, then our thought processes are vastly different. people don't like the obvious shoved In their faces. Someone says something like "Trump and HIS PEOPLE', and I just sit back and smile. I say Obama and his people, and someone IM SURE will be crying tears of racism. Its ok. :) The Liberal platform in the USA is being SHRED to pieces right now..by their own. Im just enjoying the show. Mopar, or NO car. |
