We have been fighting tyrants for more than a thousand years.

True, but not in the way you intended. We have been fighting *against*
tyrants
for over two hundred years -- and we started by fighting against the
British
King.

But harry thinks all Colonist were loyal to the King. Little does he
know about guerilla tactics of the day. The Redcoats wanted to fight
after tea and crumpets, and line-up for the fight. All prim and
proper like.

Sharpshooters, often woodsmen, were the snipers of the day. Follow
troops and snipe their asses. Move down the road and shoot some more!!

Aha. Been watching your Hollywood history films again I see.
I bet you have a boxed set. John Wayne at the Alamo. John Wayne on
Omaha beach. Sigourney Weaver beats the alien. Luke Skywalker beats
Garth Vader. Kurt Russel wins in Arcadia. USA wins the war in
Vietnam.

So who beat the Redcoats? Green Berets? Special Forces? Navy Seals?
Nope, it was farmer Brown and his flintlock. Let's face it, Englands
military glory died after their colonial days.

Correction, their colonial days ended after their military died.- Hide quoted text -

Do I have to tell you your own history?
