[QUOTE=wuzzimu;16499552]I have to agree on this. You don't see any other country wearing recreation (as in a copy, not athletic) spoils from a battle almost 200 years ago. It would be like American soldiers wearing British hats from the Battle of New Orleans in 1812 while marching around Washington D.C.[/QUOTE] It's for the tourists, same reason the Brits kept the queen.

[QUOTE=angelangel;16499627]Did you know that several Drum Majors in the US Armed Forces wear bearskins as part of their uniform? A Drum Major in a bearskin even parade in front of Obama for his inauguration.[/QUOTE] I was not aware. Thank you.

Unless Angelina Jolie does one of those nude ads, I'm calling PETA a piece of shit.
[quote]PETA dresses in KKK garb outside Westminister Dog show : People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals knows how to grab attention. And show off its laundry. The animal rights group, which every year stages a protest at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, had two of its members dress in Ku Klux Klan garb outside Madison Square Garden on Monday. Their goal, according to a post on the PETA website, was to draw a parallel between the KKK and the American Kennel Club. "Obviously it's an uncomfortable comparison," PETA spokesman Michael McGraw told the Associated Press. But the AKC is trying to create a "master race" when it comes to pure-bred dogs, he added. "It's a very apt comparison." The group passed out brochures implying the Klan and AKC have the goal of "pure bloodlines" in common. "I can't speak for everyone, but the vast majority of the people exhibiting and handling and showing at Westminster are more interested in the health of dogs than anything else," Westminster spokesman David Frei told the AP. "We want to produce the next generation of healthy and happy dogs," he said, "not just for the show ring but for the couches at home." Bystander Fatima Walden told the AP the KKK imagery was inappropriate no matter what the message. "They could have used something else as an example," she said. "You should be considerate to everybody." Other than a shouting match during the hour-long protest, police said the scene remained calm.

[QUOTE=angelangel;16499512]That makes less sense than mine. uhm...[/QUOTE] angst is german for fear when you say I have fear, you say "Ich habe Angst", so someone wouldn't be angsty, they would have angst. Someone wouldn't be feary, they would have fear.
[QUOTE=markg06;16499744]Queen has power over monarchy PM has power over state.[/QUOTE] They've essentially stripped all power from the monarchy though, so it's not like she could do anything anyway
:eng101: Thanks teach!
[QUOTE=dual elites;16498154]Just ignore them, they don't have any real power anyway. They're pretty much real life trolls.[/QUOTE] I agree. Except for the power they have over the British guardsmen. Oh hey that's a lot of power, I guess you're wrong.
[QUOTE=strong_bad;16499880]They've essentially stripped all power from the monarchy though, so it's not like she could do anything anyway[/QUOTE] She still has the power to dissolve parliament and since the all British soldiers have sworn to protect HM, that's the Army behind the monarch. :smug:

PETA doesn't like animals. They hate humans - Penn Jilette It's true.
