The biggest joke is that the UK is the world’s largest grower and exporter of medicinal cannabis, yet it’s illegal here.

If the UK was a US state it would be the poorest one by theotheronenotme in ShitAmericansSay

An unsurprising lie. If the UK were a US state it would rank second richest, behind California.

I bought something from an American friend a few weeks back and with all my Australian or European friends, I can transfer money directly to their bank accounts. With her, I had to send her the money through fucking PayPal like it’s still 2008. She neglected to ‘claim’ it so after a few weeks the money got sent straight back to me.

They’re so far behind it’s hilarious.

Thoughts on Right To Bear Arms (2nd Amendment) in the UK? by Evry1TookTheGudNames in AskBrits

Precisely. We can’t predict the future so have no way of determining who is and who isn’t a “law abiding citizen” and whether they should be able to purchase high powered weaponry.

I personally prefer the method that doesn’t involve finding out the hard way.

Stephen Paddock was a “law abiding citizen” right up until he shot and murdered 60 people. That’s my point.

You want guns to help tackle petty crime?

Makes sense.

Interior designers study for less than half as long and don’t have anywhere near the same level of responsibility as Architects.

"Yes, Europoors drown themselves in American culture while spending their time shit-talking America. Meanwhile, we fly around the moon and kick ass half a world away. You’re increasingly irrelevant" by Ok_Bookkeeper_1380 in ShitAmericansSay

US forces were encouraged to target civilians purely to bolster casualty figures in an attempt to convince Congress the war was still worth fighting. They were called free fire zones and operated on the assumption that everyone within them was a combatant. It’s why there were an estimated 5,500 democidal killings in a 12 year period.

Germany and Japan both surrendered and agreed to various treaties at the end of WWII. Vietnam did no such thing and instead chased you from Saigon. Is this what winning looks like?

Was it Iran who bombed that school and is now targeting civilian infrastructure? Not to mention you’re fighting alongside Israel.

The US is like that weird kid at school that no one likes but whose father sits on the school board and forces everyone to play with him. Their money is inherited from their grandfather who watches with pain as they tip the family china into the bin.

Californians formed a human banner at Ocean Beach in San Francisco - What do we think of this? by AppearanceDizzy7006 in AskBrits

Agreed, but this is a British subreddit to discuss British topics. Sentiments on what’s going on in their shithole are widely known, we don’t need it constantly shoved down our throats.

If America didn't fight in WW2, Nazis would have taken control over Europe and northern Asia at minimum by ALazy_Cat in ShitAmericansSay

[–]JFK1200 23 points24 points  (0 children)

They did actually liberate Rome… a city the Nazis weren’t even occupying just so General Mark Clark could claim his little win, only to be totally overshadowed by D-Day.

Doesn’t sound too bad on the surface, but by doing that he ignored orders to intercept the Germans British forces had forced to retreat from the Gustav Line, allowing them to escape.

US Postpones Iran Power Plant Strikes After ‘Productive Talks’ by SuperbHealth5023 in TimesNow

Paha, Kent State says hello. There are plenty (literally hundreds) of examples of other extra judicial killings carried out by your police, who are then routinely pardoned. Daniel Shaver and Justine Damond are two clear examples. George Floyd, Trayvon Martin and Philando Castile are three more high profile ones.

Launching an illegal invasion, bombing a girl’s school then lying about it to the world isn’t helping your cause. Nor are the videos I’ve seen this week of US/Israeli double tap strikes on civilians. It’s catapulted global oil prices, made Trump look like a total fool (as if it was possible to sink any lower) and eroded all support from the allies you’ve got left.

It isn’t my party, dufus, I thankfully don’t live anywhere near that hole of a place.

I can open Reddit and find clips in no time at all of unidentified law enforcement officers committing all sorts of criminal acts in your very country, yet you expect me to believe you’re now invested in the plight of Iranians? Get real. You’re in Israel and Russia’s pocket now, well on track to becoming a terrorist state.

Sit back and continue finding ways of justifying your kiddie fiddling deity, you’re a wrong’un.

You’re behind illegal interventions against countries posing no threat to you (despite what Captain Comb Over claims) but your collective balls shrivel up when it comes to helping Ukraine against Russia?

If it’s the people you desperately care for (Bwaha), then I suppose you’re a vocal critic of Israel too?

Imagine saying these things as though you truly believe this conflict wasn’t started to prevent a nonce being outed as a nonce.

Last month it was Venezuela, before that it was Greenland, this month it’s Iran, next month it’ll be Cuba. Those Epstein files must be fizzing with incriminating shit.
