    Hell no. Give it back to the rightful owners. Most of the east coast goes back to Britain. The Netherlands can have New York and Pensylvania back. There probably something for Germany as well, I’m don’t know the exact histories of all states. The French and the spanish can divide the south. California can become a free nation, because it can support itself.

        The experiment “self-government for the colonies” has been declared a failure. We’re coming back!

          No, bud, you’re not getting it. There were people living in America long before Europeans ever showed up. If anybody’s got a claim, there’s is much stronger.

      Your second and third sentences directly contradict each other so badly, I am shocked they do not destroy one another via touch akin to anti matter and matter touching one another

        That’s weird. Both seconds of research I did, were very conclusive!

          Really? What about the years of grade school history?

          Britian isnt even the rightful owner of most of britian, it sure as shit has no claim to anything american.

            It might surprise you, but outside of the US, US history is merely a chapter in the history books. I’ve learned most US history from pop media.

              And no where in that chapter did they mention the existence of native americans?

              I highly doubt this is the first time youve heard or seen the words “native americans”

                Oh lol. Of course. How could I overlook that 😅

                I know how… I was reading a conversation about colonial times minutes before I made this comment.
