It’s on DC license plates
Wait, why?! DC doesn’t get proper representation. Or are you joking?
In any case, to say the people of the 50 states are adequately represented is foolish.
DC, Puerto Rico, Samoa, Virgin Islands and Mariana Islands all pay taxes and have zero representation in congress.
Different rules for brown people.
alot of schools
Language is fluid (fortunately|unfortunately)
That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t fight to keep it mutually intelligible for all speakers/writers.
Colonists were even paying tax at a 90% discounted rate compared to those in Britain.
No one ever accused Americans of being smart.
Listen pal, I wish you were in front of me. Me and my two buddies would take you on, 5 to 1.
