The first one got filled up and died on me - to continue:
The British are Coming, the British Are Coming! was a term we were schooled in as part of The War of Independence in my American education. And that wearing a Redcoat was pretty stupid as you could see it from my miles away.
Even so, without the French Republic stepping in and a Gentleman's Agreement by Generals made - 1812 would have been a fucking bloodbath with many coats turning red.
But then the USA committed genocide upon the native population.
There is never a complete right nor wrong - I prefer to find the commonalities between people rather than fester on any differences.
