  2.  @Ishmachiah  Actually I'm Australian but went to college in America. and it wasn't for a 1 semester exchange. Don't try any of that revisionist shit on me. We get taught British history in Australia and as such are well informed about British political behavior. King George may not have personally abused the colonials but he sure as the sun comes up allowed his military to do whatever they liked. I studied aerospace engineering, but a bunch of my fraternity brothers were Pre-law and they loved discussing how and why the constitution was written they way it was and why the Bill of RIghts exists. The reason why the 1st Amendment is the 1st Amendment was because the British authorities used to use the sedition and treason laws for anything they liked. American colonials who disagreed with British officers risked getting hanged. Its one reason why it almost impossible to get Trump on treason or sedition. American law has a very narrow definition of Treason and the 1st Amendment makes sedition almost impossible to prosecute except for military personnel because the UCMJ precludes any 1st Amendment claim. The British did similar here in Australia, but not as bad in most ways. And before you yell at me being Australian that I do recognize the Papuan flag and am fully aware of Australia's colonial past and that we got many things wrong and some of them very seriously wrong. And don't be an ass hole on the dates when EVERY AMERICAN and half the civilized world recognizes the year 1776. July 4, 1776 was THE DATE the continental congress ratified its Declaration of Independence. Don't try and tell an American some other revisionist garbage, as I can assure you that you wont like the response.
