Alas, we took their model and improved it.
Ours? of course is more explicit in its wording, of course. But guns have always been more integral to our culture as frontier nation keeping the @Swaye 's from burning our cabins and wagons. In Britain they never cared as much about their guns and we do here. -

The point of this exercise isn't to say the Brit's (c)onstitution is better than our (C)onstitution. I don't view this as being the case. I'm just saying in the big scheme of things, it's still a free country. And further more, I try to give the mother ship as much respeck as possible, because the primary reason we are the country we are is because of the fact we were founded by freedom loving Englishmen who's ancestors only one century prior did away with absolute monarchy.UW_Doog_Bot said:

Now, if you want to make the argument that the Scots are the primary reason we are the country we are, I could get on that bandwagon...Adam Smith, John Knox, Andrew Carnegie, David Byrne.....
@PurpleThrobber distilling corn rather than barley is the Ulster Scots greatest contribution to civilization. Except Washington was a piece of shit for taxing them for it. -

Single malt in this economy? I hear you, @MikeDamone . I'm mostly bourbon because of its superior value ( Blanton's shit poasts aside). I DRINKIG Old Granddad 114 at my desk as we speak. Only $27 BTW. Wonderful discovery I made the other day.MikeDamone said:

Bruh, I've drunk many bottles of the most peated whisky in the world with members of this bored. More than @MikeDamone has even in his Islay whisky phase.PurpleThrobber said:

The point of this exercise isn't to say the Brit's (c)onstitution is better than our (C)onstitution. I don't view this as being the case. I'm just saying in the big scheme of things, it's still a free country. And further more, I try to give the mother ship as much respeck as possible, because the primary reason we are the country we are is because of the fact we were founded by freedom loving Englishmen who's ancestors only one century prior did away with absolute monarchy.UW_Doog_Bot said:
That's kind of the point of the whole thing here though isn't it. Social norms change. Relying on them for the preservation of your societies rights and adherence there to is short sighted. Just look at how many Zoomers don't think freedom of speech is important.YellowSnow said:

I'm totally down with the N. Ireland whiskys - Bushmills has some really good stuff. Their new Red is more on the bourbon side. I had one of their 16 years on a visit to their distillery a while back and am kicking myself for not buying it there. Destroys the papist whiskys in the Republic further down the island where they were too poor to pay the barley tax. I had some other N. Ireland whiskys in Belfast but was too fucked up to remember which ones.
