Your country is so high and mighty...build that darn wall, setup a Berlin style wall....get your country under control...Canada is tired of cleaning up after the mess the U.S creates....Illegals coming thru and the drugs as well....it is a 2 way street Joe....both have some mending to do...


That was my point. I will deal with the mess in my country. Others should do the same.

Besides, it is NOT a "Berlin Style" wall. The Soviet's did NOT build that wall to keep anyone out, it was built to keep people from escaping. They shot those who tried. Not the same as keeping out criminals.

Point taken......Thought we had another Raisin River Battle starting....LOL

However, from January 18th to January 23rd, 1813, the north bank of the River Raisin became a battleground where the forces of the United States and Great Britain fought each other for the control of all of Michigan and the Lower Great Lakes. At stake was the destiny not only of the 2 countries (United State and Great Britain), but also the future of Frenchtown, (known today as Monroe Michigan) and of Canada, and of Tecumseh's alliance of Native-American tribes.

The British and Indian victory at the River Raisin destroyed an entire American army and upset their campaign to recapture Detroit, which had fallen to the enemy early in the war. It raised Native-American hopes that their alliance with the British would result in the preservation of their lands, while it brought grief to hundreds of families in Kentucky who had lost their sons during the bloody battle and its aftermath.

While not a decisive turning point of the war, the Battle of the River Raisin had a significant effect on the campaign for the Great Lakes. It would take a full 9 months for U.S. forces to regain their momentum. In the meantime, Frenchtown was laid waste, and the Ohio frontier was exposed to invasion and raids by the British and Indians.

The problem is, you're trying to make a point when none existed. Where did I comment on anything in this thread? Let alone something that made you break out your well worn soapbox?
Having said that, if I do feel the desire to comment on anything on these boards I will. So put that in your pipe and smoke it.

I find it hard to believe that some think all movies aren't real but put so much faith in the internet and the propaganda that our media and our government puts out there!

People need to see through the haze!..it doesn't matter which party is in office...the only difference is how they put it to Ya!
