This, of course, does not mean that the U.S. is willing to share the blame for the plight of slavery; it is, after all, totally our fault.

well, I don't know how true this is in other American homes, but it never came up as a topic in my home. Nor do I remember history books pointing at anyone else. Maybe I need a refresher course...

RPerry,

j2 was merely highlighting the fact that everything that is wrong/evil in the world is the fault of the US. A casual perusal of the forum will prove this beyond question.

I really don't know how we manage to get out of bed in the morning.

Deflection is a wonderful tactic and you use it well - both of you.

However to attempt to dismiss the darkest part of your history with half a dozen words is frankly appaling.

To then go on to put yourselves forward as the epitome of freedom and justice would put a hollywood mogul to shame. Don't let the facts get in the way of a good tale.

We sit in poor old Europe, watching your ranygazoo (sorry to use such strong language) with the RIAA, suing students for millions, threatening to imprison people for nothing more than copying a song from the radio (updated) when the people who are threatening to do this are supplying the hardware, software and media to do it with and are left speechless.

As ever your words are no more than that - your actions show the real you.

Incidentally para 3 is my entry in this years "longest sentence in a sensible thread" category.

As usual, Americans stand in the shadow of Trigger, the moral high horse that JPaul rides into every thread.

I would kind of like to know where I dismissed anything of the sort? what I dismissed was the notion that I point my finger at Great Britain for it...

Not you - j2 and clocker.

Try to read the whole thread - not just the last couple of posts.
