England don't make much in the way of men anymore...
England's Christian based law system
1/3rd of the world's population (2.3 billion people) live in common law jurisdictions, particularly in England where it originated in the Middle Ages,[5] and countries that trace their legal heritage to England as former colonies of the British Empire, including India,[6] the United States, Pakistan,[7] Nigeria, Bangladesh, Canada, Malaysia, Ghana, Australia,[8] Sri Lanka, Hong Kong, Singapore, Ireland, New Zealand, Jamaica, Trinidad & Tobago, Cyprus and Barbados.[9] South Africa, Zimbabwe, Cameroon, Namibia, Botswana, Guyana and Israel have mixed systems with significant admixtures of civil law.
I'm saying... the Atheist and Commies better thank Jesus! cause if I had my hand on the button I'd push it
but anyway I can call out the bad and the good in things I observe... that's my right.
PS: your username is quite ironic considering your location
you're right... I don't see it.

No, I guess you don't see it.
my Nations Constitution...
Is it?
And who gave you that right?
your particular views are irrelevant to me honestly... and there is no need for me to reserve the right to tell you.
You know nothing of my reasoning, motivations or beliefs etc....you assume much yet know little.

HAHAHA, sounds like someone is mad that the UK used to rule the world and now sadly they are nothing more than a sinking Island. Maybe you're mad that the USA kicked your countries arse in Revolutionary war or is it we have military bases on your sinking Island right now and you don't have jack S&%# on our land. If the USA never got involved in WW2 Britain could not have defeated the combined Germany and Italy in Western Europe and Mediterranean/North Africa area. Germany and Italy would have defeated Britain.
Maybe you should be thanking us Yanks for saving your sinking Island instead of wishing it ill will.
This September will mark the 229th anniversary of the end of the American Revolutionary War. I guess some wounds never heal. This weekend, the Britain's National Army Museum voted George Washington the greatest military enemy ever to face Britain.
Historian Stephen Brumwelll said it best "the American Revolutionary War was the worst defeat for the British Empire ever,"
Every time you sip some earl grey you should be thankful that the USA will protect your sinking island.

Well, as always, a well done thread on a topic as is relates to my own country's history that I had no idea about! I thank you for bringing this to the 'table' so to speak.
Anyway, thanks so much for presenting this interesting piece of history to us. I for one appreciate it. I have to wonder if his is the first instance of the US advance planning a possible strike on another country? Anyone out there know of any?
This has been discussed before pretty extensively,
