the Gunpowder Treason and Plot. I know of no reason why the Gunpowder Treason should ever be forgot..

 

[Billy the Great Khan]

Guy Fawkes Guy Fawkes, t'was his intent
To blow up the king and parli'ment.
Three score barrels of powder to blow
To prove Old England's overthrow

A day to give thanks that we weren't burdened, as a nation, with the foul smell of Popery.

In your face Benedicts 16.

You homophobe! What have you got against conservative old men who wear dresses and a beanie?

 

[Billy the Great Khan]

I think it's funny that Americans who celebrate Guy Fawkes day (myself included), do so in the complete opposite spirit of the intent of the holiday.

Yes, we will, he is so greedy! In my home, every day is veterans day! thanks honey!

Lots of rum mostly. But what I meant was the spirit we celebrate. In American we celebrate the fact the Guy Fawkes tried to blow up parliament. In England they celebrate that he failed to do so.

A lot of people of a more anarchist tint in other countries celebrate it in that way. America just probably has an affinity for that because we were pretty much the only part of the British empire to break off in a violent revolution.

That and V for Vendetta being very popular over here.

Apart from India, Kenya, Malaya and Palestine, you are right.

Ghandi's revolution in India was non-violent.

And didn't you guys give away Palestine to the j00s in some UN treaty? Oh I dunno.

 

[Billy the Great Khan]

We were the first to do it, but a lot of the middle east broke away violently.

Well apart from the estimated 1.5 million who died in the ethnic cleansing, it was non violent.
