If by "we won that one" you are refering to the War of 1812... sorry, but any objective review of that war leads an unbiased observer to conclude that it was a draw.
Let's see now.

Pulls out a $20 bill.....funny, that's not Jackson on it, there's some old British broad.....

A draw? Only an American could possibly interpret a war in which you attempt to conquer some place (not the first time you tried) and fail to do so (not the first time for that either) as a draw because the other side's punitive expeditions didn't conquer you...something that had never been intended.

I knew you Southrons were good at self delusion, but really? You consider that an objective assessment?

Here's objective: You tried to conquer us and we're still here....you lost.

You fuckers make a national pass time out of historical revisionism don't you?

Grab some history books and read... most historians disagree with you. The main purpose of the invasion of Canada was not territory (that simply would have been a bonus... the really valuable real estate was in the Caribbean) but to stop British sponsored Indian attacks upon the American frontier. The first actual attack of the war came from Canada in an attack upon American territory at Fort Mackinac. After the American invasions of Canada failed the British were planing another invasion from the north but that got put on hold when the U.S. Navy cleaned their clocks in the Battle of Lake Erie. The British invasion of the East Coast, despite the burning of Washington, was stopped on land and sea at Baltimore and Jackson put a stop to the British invasion of New Orleans. Now take your nationalistic, bigoted shit about revisionism and shove it back where it came from.

I only extend the invitation to narcissistic dickheads who, in their arrogant ignorance, make snarky comments that accomplish nothing except to expose themselves for what they really are.

I don’t think you qualify.

I'm sorry, Marc, I just don't have either the time or inclination to expend the effort required to teach yet another ignorant Southron the facts of the matter. Suffice to say that conquest of the U.S. was never even considered to be of interest let alone an aim by the British (they were just a little busy dealing with Napoleon at the time...you know in a titanic struggle for their existence with a real major threat...not a minor colonial squabble), and that the conquest of Canada was indeed the main aim of the U.S. Hawks...the final expulsion of Britain from North America being one of the big shibboleths at the time. You started the war, you invaded with the intent to conquer, we are still free...ergo...you lost.

We handed you your asses on a platter. Shut up and deal with it.

Now you take your nationalistic, bigoted, bullshit revisionism and shove it right back up your useless ill-educated Southron ass.

I wouldn't say interesting so much as stupid. Just out of interest, where did you come across such a proposition.

You really think highly of yourself, don’t you?

Bullshit! Why did they launch three invasions? And don’t give me any bullshit about punitive expeditions. That may have been their self serving justification but it was still the British who caused the war with their state sponsored terrorism against Americans and it was still a British attack into America that was the first of the cross border invasions.

(they were just a little busy dealing with Napoleon at the time...you know in a titanic struggle for their existence with a real major threat


No shit, Sherlock… tell me something I don’t know.

If, as you say, we were out to conquer Canada, would they consider that minor?

and that the conquest of Canada was indeed the main aim of the U.S. Hawks...the final expulsion of Britain from North America being one of the big shibboleths at the time. You started the war, you invaded with the intent to conquer, we are still free...ergo...you lost.


I wasn’t aware that every single American was a war hawk. When did this happen? Did somebody tell the New England states who threatened secession over the war?

We handed you your asses on a platter. Shut up and deal with it.


In some battles you did. In some battles we handed you your ass on a platter. In the end the whole thing came down to a stalemate… but the state sponsored terrorism you were engaging in against us did come to an end.

And no, I will not shut up.

Now you take your nationalistic, bigoted, bullshit revisionism and shove it right back up your useless ill-educated Southron ass.


I’m calling it a draw (the majority agreement amongst historians), how is that nationalistic? Or bigoted?

You, on the other hand, proclaiming a draw to be a victory is clearly nationalistic… and you’re calling me a ill educated southron ass is clearly bigotry.

I’m sorry that my position on this offends you so much but you are just going to have to accept it. If you want to continue to give yourself an ego stoke-off, be my guest. I promise I won’t let your nationalism or bigotry cloud my generally positive view of Canada or Canadians.

Have a nice weekend.

It doesn't offend me Marc, disappoints a little me in as much I always considered you to be reasonably intelligent for a Southron...but apparently such intelligence only goes so far when confronting the myth of U.S. invincibility.

And "state-sponsored terrorism"?
That bullshit rationale might play in Peoria, but it sure doesn't elsewhere...nobody bought it regarding Iraq, and nobody is going to buy it over 1812 either.

We're still here...we won, you lost. Quit your whining and bullshit, shut up and deal with it.

Please spare us any further glimpses into the intellectual black hole you call a mind...you're so dense that you have your own gravitational field.

When have I ever said anything to lead you to believe that I believe in such a myth? Have I ever proclaimed U.S. victory in Vietnam? or Iraq? When?

Britian was arming Indian tribes and encouraging them to attack U.S. settlements and seizing American sailors and impressing them into forced labor... how does that not fit the definition of state sponsored terroism?

I am not whining... I am stating facts that you just don't want to accept. And, once again, I will not shut up. I will speak my mind if I damn well please. If you don't like what I have to say then put me on hide and you won't have to deal with it.

Again... if you don't like what I have to say, then put me on hide.

Despite everything I bear you no ill will,

Peace and prosperity to you and yours,

Marc

"Britian never intended to defeat the US? Interesting spin."

I have believed that for over twenty years, more actually I think. The theory is becoming more popular with people thinking it out and realizing just how ridiculously difficult it would be for the crown to hold unwilling territories so far away. Elite they were, but not jet set, and neither was the army nor supplies.

There would come a time when the tax revenue simply wasn't worth it. Canada on the other hand was willing. Well that's their fucking problem. But then the US is never going to go against the quo without a revolution anyway so none of this means shit in the end.

Free ?

You don't even understand the fucking concept. Not that people do down here, but you certainly don't.
