You said in a previous post "the continentals got owned in EVERY battle" So yes, bunker hill would be what you are talking about.

every battle? Yea that explains why the British retreated many times (hence the video). The continental army outsmarted the british in many ways. Including the video you see here. The british kill most of the people. the rest retreat. Now many,many soldiers lay back to kill the rest of the British. Yeah.. the British sure did own us.

well I'm not talking about bunker hill am I. I was actually referring to the all other battles that we won, u lot suffered more than we did since we were better trained at warfare. it was only at guildford courthouse that we started to lose a fair bit of our manpower towards the end.

I've lived in Scotland and I have to say how glad I am that you are not a true representative. How unfair it would be of me to make assumptions about a whole country based on one. America isn't perfect, far from it but then again neither is a country who has a national hero that made belts out of his enemy's skin. I teach my students about the world including the European colonization of India, Africa, South America and North America. How easy it is to blame. How difficult to share adult ideas.

I'm not going to get in a debate with you over youtube. All I'm saying is you spit out all these bold proclomations about the U.S. and have nothing to back them up with. For instance, you say the Gov't. uses the catholic church to keep everyone in order? Less than 50% of the population is Catholic so why would EVERYONE as you say listen to them? In all of U.S. history there has only been 1 catholic president and he was shot. Almost every satement you made demonstrated your ingnorance.

I'm not in the US you fucking retarded, why would I want to live in a courrupted country, most of you are brainwashed pricks, your government uses the catholic church to keep everyone in order and you all follow it like sheep, your country corrupts everyone, most south american and african countries are in so much debt because of the US, what a country to be in right? The US is the most hated country in the world, I wonder why, don't ever reply here again because you know nothing. Now fuck off.

Please. 95%? Sounds like made up statistics if I've ever heard 'em. You don't like the U.S., stay the fuck out.

Learn your history. Bunker Hill? British forces suffered nealy 4x the losses that the Continentals did but the Continentals were forced to retreat because the ran out munitions.

Entertaining movie for it's value; however, if you're looking for a true history lesson gouge your eyes our immediately. I will give it's due credit a patriotic influence, but it does a horrible job of accounting for the historical record. |
