It's what Britain celebrates on the 4th of July (Grins, ducks, runs) You mean its one of those yank holidays? Oh, I see. It's giving thanks that the native american indians fed and helped the new settlers, meanwhile those very same settlers were planning genocide to grab their land. A pretty gruesome thing to celebrate, all-in-all |
