Some valid points, some just made me laugh...

I never knew we invented slums though...

I figured It wasn't an invention.

It's by an ignorant American. There are plenty of interviews and such by him and he comes across as an idiot.

Some points are valid and some are just plain wrong (the machine gun was invented by an american for example)

He did it because he thinks people are being harsh on America.

Who keeps deleteing my posts O_O

We invented the Black Death?

**LSJ** · September 09, 2007, 07:42 PM

Apparently the British invented the black plague.
Wow, talk about advanced science! I never knew their facilities had biological warfare ability back then.

**Hookah Smoking Caterpiller** · September 10, 2007, 05:49 PM

Britain didn't exist during the black death.

Unless those evil brits built a time machine and went back in time to inflict this on the population of Europe

He's right only about one thing: the machine gun.
The first practical machine-gun was invented in 1718 by British inventor James Puckle.

hmmmm.... interesting... i never knew we invented the Black Death...

He's right to say we invented the Machine Gun, (see above) Concentration Camps (Lord Kitchener, but not death camps though, ours were internment camps)

If he thinks we invented slums, prisons child labour and bad hygiene, he clearly hasn't studied classical civilisations. All of that can, at the very least, be attributed to the Romans, if not an earlier Civilisation

Apparently we invented universities too...
I always thought the first Higher Education Insititute as we know it today was Shang Xiang, dating back to around 2200BC, long before the first English university...

meh i give up at this point... the whole site is clearly a load of utter rubbish

Those sites always make me laugh

It must be a joke, right ........................??!

Is this for Real?
Yes. Any student of world history will tell you that if he had to pick a single nation to pin all the world's troubles on, Britain is far and away the obvious choice. There is plenty of precedent of countries paying off their victims in cash. The Nazis had to pay off the Jews. The U.S. government has settled with many Indian tribes, offering them land, lucrative casino rights, and in some cases, cash. We, the International Coalition for British Reparations, are asking that the greatest criminal nation on earth—the British—pay up as well.

Aparrently not a joke...

**Mathius** · September 16, 2007, 05:02 PM

We Brits also invented cold sores, income tax and death, so this chap has us bang to rights.

You should read his book.

Pfft. The world was asking for it anyway.

**Commander_Vimes** · September 23, 2007, 05:44 AM

What was that saying.........oh yeah,
The British invent them, the French perfect them, the Germans make them and the Americans use them.

**boofhead** · September 23, 2007, 06:30 AM

That is one of the dumbest things I have ever read. As dumb as Stormfront.

**LSJ** · September 09, 2007, 05:27 PM

Bad Inventions. Machine guns, slums, prisons, child labor, bad hygiene, the Black Plague, concentration camps, you name it. If it hurts people, the British probably came up with it.

lol... is this comedy or what?

The first machine gun was invented by an American. Slums have been around since before Alexander the Great. Prisons have been around forever - the ancient Romans had them. Child labour? What about child slaves? That's ancient practice. Bad hygiene? Lol... this must be a joke... right? The plague - this is definitely a joke. Its the Mongols who brought it over accidentally. Concentration camps - they were one of the first to use them but its not a "British invention".

@_@

£31,960,000,000,000 from Britain. Lol. Well, this was certainly a good laugh anyhow.
