[quote]Historic US documents the Bill of Rights and the Declaration of Independence will be on display in the UK for the first time next year.
They are being lent to the British Library for its exhibition Magna Carta: Law, Liberty, Legacy.
The Declaration, dated 1776, established the separation of America from Great Britain.
The 1789 bill first laid out the constitutional rights of the US people and the limits on government power.
The Declaration of Independence will be on loan from the New York Public Library, while the Bill of Rights is normally housed in the US National Archives.[/quote]
Then when they "disappear" in transit the US will have no choice but to become a colony again, it's the perfect plan

All of a sudden Britain goes back to being a full Monarchy.
Queen Elizabeth II must be laughing right now.
I am ready to firebomb these and because they won't have the people to sign it again America will become good old 'liz's again.
FOR GODS GREEN EARTH AND OLDE QUEENE LIZ

"Whoops for some reason we also put the Magna Carta on the ship with the Declaration, which then mysteriously sank for absolutely no reason, God Save the Queen"

Rule, Britannia!
Too soon.
It'll be like the Boston tea party, except with important American documents.
Nicolas Cage is going to be involved in this, somehow.

This would explain the sudden love of Bees in Britain.

WE'LL NEVER BE SLAVES TO SOME TEA-DRINKING PANSIES
That's really cool. I love looking at the documents like these. Have fun seeing it, my British friends! (I haven't yet :v:)
"Treasonous document transferred to England to be incinerated"
I just had a thought. If King George III never actually read it (because why would he travel to the dirty colonies), then technically speaking we're still colonies of the British Monarchs and Queen Elizabeth II really is an Illuminati Lizard Overlord.
and so we've been secretly controlled by the Monarchs since then.
This is a really, really bad idea.
Please be nice.
If we burn them they never happened right?

The Declaration of Independence was copied and sent to him.

Who gives a fuck if he didn't approve of it (hint hint the American Revolution), Britian is full of irrelevant wusses and no one listens to them anyway

And then she grandly reveals that she's actually been an immortal King George III in a dress this whole time
its not THE declaration or bill of rights, its one of the few original copies (remember, they signed multiple copies of the document because each state needed one)

including the passage legalizing gay marrage, the 2 amendments concerning the god given right to smoke anything we want, and the clarification on the right to bear arms, in that everyone has the right to own bear arms

I realize that, it was simply a bad joke.
I wouldn't mind being part of Britain.
