check history books and see who the first explorers were... all of them british criminals (not enough space in british prisons). those people "built" america. that's what history tells us, simple fact. i'm not making general conclusions, though...

The bad potato harvest was when the Irish moved to Britain. The British to the US was purely adventurers and people wanting to set up a new land.
Plus the fact U2 are Irish so have no real affiliation to Britain :o)

*stares* I'm not going to comment on your historical accuracy, or lack thereof, you see my hands get a bit shaky and that impedes my ability to type when I find occasion like this..to laugh.
And as for U2- Ugh.
That's all I had to say- have a nice day, eat twinkies and be glad you have money.

I suppose it depends on whose history books you read...history is only recorded through the interpretation of the writer.
It would be interesting to see in US history books in 100 years time over how September 11th is recorded.

I still laugh when I remember Bobo's acceptance speech at some pointless award ceremony going...We are here to fuck the mainstream...and my instant kneejerk response was...well then turn around and fuck yourself or your nearest bandmate..that will be the quickest way to achieve it:)

the hands that built america...
there was an article in the NY times...
a HUGE majority of people that build buildings in the US are nattive americans. For some reason, they have great balance and arnt afraid of heights.
The WTC was built by native americans
as where a HUGE % of other buildins in NYC
a sad irony isnt it?

a lot of the building were also built ON the native americans too...desecration and reappropriation of sacred burial grounds was a lot more common than is known..

C'mon. The USA are hardly the first group of conquerors in history to build over the conquered.
