happy:

Reminds me of a story my dad told me: He was in a bar (and drunk), sitting next to a guy from London, and out of no where says something like, "We beat your asses because you were told not to shoot until you saw the whites of our eyes." I think they got into a fight, obviously.

It's my understanding that there is a decent percentage of Irish that want to remain under British rule. I dunno.....Gerv? Is that right? If so, there is absolutely no comparison, infact, even despite that there is no comparison. Iraq = Invaded looking for WMDs. Ireland, centuries old land conflict, with two valid sides.

That's all good and true, but I'm not the one criticising the American government. You, however, feel the need too look over something YOU know nothing about, not the other way around.

I mean, just as there are plenty of things you don't understand about the monarchy, there are plenty I don't understand about the American government. Thing is, I'm not critiquing the american government, and insulting its existence. Like a bunch of you were towards the commonwealth's choice to have a royal family.

You're dellusional if you think it's easy living life as a royal. Their life is non-stop media-bait, do you think its fun to be poked fun at by the media, for the world to see? They do alot of PR work, they don't just sit down all day taking shits in golden toilets. While I agree that todays royal family is a bit oOo: ...The current queen is the same queen that stood by the people, helping boost morale during the Blitz, when england and her commonwealth stood alone in the face of facism.

That is something worth having around in times of need.

It's really none of your business how the monarchy is run, because you're not in the commonwealth. That's what I was getting at when I said you didn't understand.....

I mean, I don't go around pissing on American flags - because I understand that people have risked life and limb for it. It's not my place anyway, because I'm not American. It has nothing to do with me.

You're just playing into the stereotype of loud-mouth, ignorant americans when you act like that.

Try again. I'm a New Zealander you fucking semensniffer.

....and the difference is, I didn't say shit about America, or criticise it in the first place, so I don't need to shut the fuck up. You do. Because you have just proven yourself to be a stupid fucking quack. Die 22 times.

take no notice of those coffee sippers my man, it's their fault if they don't want to be part of our glorious Commonwealth because their great grandfathers decided to throw some tea in the river or something a few hundred years ago. Had this unfortunate incident not taken place our rebel colonial friends may have had the priviledge of being part of our internatinal party gang.

I take particular pride in serving in Her Majestys premier service, there's a certain romance to living in a realm rather than just another republican state & I enjoy the links & assosciations the monarchy & Commonwealth give us with other countries. Rather than being completely detatached I'm proud of the fact my country can share a bond with the Commonwealth allies & that many people have cousins or relatives living in Commonwealth countries. There's also the similar history that the countries have for fighting for the old cause & many people can claim their ancestors died for King & Country, two of my direct ancestors have.

Whilst I am a Royalist you can't compare me to those vomit-inducing idiots who sobbed their pathetic little hearts out in 1997 over a woman they knew nothing of any real substance of. I think Harry has a curious sense of humour, probably quite a laugh to party with & no-body actually knows Charles or the rest personally so they can't really judge. I do know that he is worthy of some respect.

The Duke of Cornwall is the Heir to the Throne in a Constitutional Monarchy, therefore is unelected. So what? That's the British system, for whose 'unelected' Monarch thousands have sacrificed themselves either to make Britain great or keep Britain free. Democracy is no panacea - Hitler was an elected politician. It is not right to judge Charles so quickly. Do people just gauge his character from the infantile portrayals on the US networks? Charles is a patron of 360 charitable organisations, gained his flying wings at RAF Cranwell, become a Helicopter pilot on an Aircraft Carrier, came to command a coastal minehunter & earned his jump wings with the Parachute Regiment. In the year to March 2004, does a he helped to raise, directly or indirectly, £100 million for charity? He's hardly done nothing for anyone.

On the topic regarding tex: Taxpayers pays for the Civil List - money used to fund the Queen's duties as head of state. It pays for the costs of staff and running the Official Household. Within this, the only individuals to personally receive an income are the Queen, as Head of State, and Prince Philip. And they pay income tax. The Prince of Wales receives nothing from the public purse, but gains an income from his personal estates, the Duchies of Lancaster and Cornwall. In fact, the Civil List was introduced in the nineteeenth century, in lieu of the income from Royal lands and esates; today this income dwarfs anything the Civil List pays out, so in reality the taxpayer receives a benefit from the List.

Here's to the Monarchy beer: I like the silly symbols & strange uniforms because it gives one a sense of identity. I do hope there's little chance of having a revolution, the French never really caught on to the idea & it would be incredably bad form to see one of those decapitation devices on Horse Guards Parade.
