You do know that many of the worst atrocities of the American War of Independence were carried out by the "Patriot" side right? If you don't believe me look up the Gnadenhutten massacre for example

I don't know anything of the frickin' kind. I know I can tit for tat you all day long with this one, so let's avoid the "many of the worst" weasel words, shall we? Also, in a technical historical irony, keep in mind the people who did the "Patriot" atrocities were British. I wonder who they learned their ways from, dad.

Quote:

You know we Brits abolished slavery here in England in 1772 and that fear we'd do the same in the Colonies was a major reason for the Rebellion right?

Darn, we'll never know. If only there were some document that listed the colonial's grievances against the Crown, then we could...hey!*

You know, you mighta coulda got away with that one if the Americans' hilariously named Founding Fathers hadn't kept such fantastic and voluminous notes. Unfortunately for your argument they did and we know precisely what was on their mind.

Quote:

In any case if you'd like to argue this matter further (and good naturedly I hope) how about you start a thread in Real World FFF.NET and we can take the topic there instead of continuing to hijack this thread?

Hey, I was just picking up where you left off, cochise. You were the one who "couldn't resist". You want to keep this one up, respond to this there.

*- Please don't make me spell that out.

No actually it wasn't in direct retaliation for just the Burning of York (Modern day Toronto then Capital of Upper Canada) but for all the other Canadian Towns burned too.

Then why did you say it was for a white flag disruption? I guess what I'm really asking is, which time are you telling the truth, this time or the last? You know, just to clear it up.

Quote:

The firing on the White Flag likely did colour Major General Robert Ross's view on exactly how many buildings he was going to burn though.

Actually it was on written orders of the Crown's representative given immediately after York. Since your take makes no sense (they either torched towns or they didn't, I don't know of any historical proportional representation in rampages), I will assume you just kinda have a "differential truth equation".

Sorry my friend but it was you that started the threadjack with your "Ah, there's nothing quite like the sound of a hundred concealed US guns cocking all at once" comment to my original on-topic post.

Anyhow I apologise to our viewers for this unscheduled threadjack which will now be continued here http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=18&t=18334

I exist..I do believe.
I'm a Soham Browncoat...more of a country Browncoat really, no doubt you haven't heard of it, but I'm pretty much right next to Cambridge. If anyone else is in that area Send me a message :D
