Did we (the British) truly defeat the Americans/Rebels during the Revolutionary War?

[BritishRegular]

There's no bloody way that they could have beaten us on their own, and certainly not in face to face combat. Lexington and Concord was proof of that. They also sent in a spy the night before to interfere with our surprise attack, we should have killed him on the spot too. And even though they (somehow) managed to kill a lot of our forces at Bunker Hill, we were still victorious at the end of the day. Also, we easily kicked their arses in Quebec City and New York. :)

They also cheated by bringing in the French (whom we also defeated during THEIR revolutionary wars by the way) to do the fighting for them. :(

And just look at the state of their "country" now; daily shootings (we were supposed to confiscate their guns in April of 1775!), obesity, lethal airbourne diseases, foolish leaders in their government, etc.

I... I'm sorry, WE demand a bloody rematch at once!!!

[USLegionary]

The same arrogance you display is the same arrogance that lost your forefarhers the revolutionary war.

The Germans still claim Britain cheated in both world wars by bringing in big bad uncle Sam and for us supporting your war effort.

Also if you want a rematch I'd point out that the US Marine corp alone is the size of the entire British military with as many planes, tanks, helicopters and artillery.

[AviatorTom]

Fine... go live in your own reality. Maybe you should spend more time thinking about who your replacement PM will be than trying to redo 250-year-old history.

You are right on one point though. England SHOULD have beaten the rebel colonists, but they didn't, thanks to a lot of colonial good luck and Redcoat bad luck.

[Bratsondanielle]

I know one thing and that is that in 1776 on the 4th of July we broke away from Britain completely anf formed the greatest country on Earth

[BritishRegular]

Er nope. That would be the 3rd of September, 1783.

[Bratsondanielle]

August 2nd 1776 to be precise.

[BritishRegular]

Wrong again, woman!!

[Bratsondanielle]

Uhm ok... well the important thing is that we broke away from the old world and created the greatest country on earth. Most Americans would say that happened on one certain date. But as long as I don't have to trouble myself with kings and queens and gun restrictions etc and as long as I can live in a place where even the poorest of the poor have a car then I'm good with it whatever date

[Rangers]

Yeah you lost because redcoats had nothing to gain but going on a power trip burning down people's homes and murdering innocent people but Colonials either fought or got their house burned down and murdered. We had nothing to lose and everything to gain, you had nothing to gain and everything to lose

[Goforit1010]

A rematch? On our turf - like before? AND we get to use all the guns we currently have?

Absolutely!

And just to be sure, to quote you, it WILL be a "bloody" rematch with the SAME result. Go ahead... bring it!

[LovinggFighter]

The British lost a lot of major battles

Battle of Cowpens

Battle of Yorktown

Battle of Saratoga

The war even cost the British and their allies dearly.

Roughly 6,800 Patriots were killed, along with 2,000+ French Allies on one side

There were also 6,000 British killed in battle, along with roughly 2,000 Loyalists, and 2,000 Hessians on the other side

[NamerOfStars]

Um, we already HAD a rematch. In 1812. You lost that one, too; if it weren't for the Canadians stepping in to save your asses, you'd've been pledging allegiance to President Jackson.

[Chazmatazz269]

Ell oh ell! Like every other bitter c*nt that ever lost a fight. Tell you what, let’s do round two! Ell oh ell!

[humanearth]

I agree citizens of the world VS the world governments

We the people had enough bullying from the world governments.

We need to fight back

[MikeInHawaii]

Cornwallis surrendered. You tried to take back the US in 1812 and failed. We had to bail you out of two World Wars and protect Australia for you. You’re welcome!

[ShadezMcgee]

Aw, please, you British pansies couldn't hit your way out of a wet paper sack. 😉

[love_conquers_lust]

To be fair, no one could with musket balls. See the Magnus Effect.

[ShadezMcgee]

@love_conquers_lust two things here, my guy.

1.) I wasn't referring to their shooting, it was their fighting capability as a whole.

2.) This was a joke

[love_conquers_lust]

So was mine. I was elaborating on it.

[jshm2]

Sheesh, and I thought I was anti-America enough!

[IsoUser]

No, you essentially just ran away after we started picking off your Officers Specifically, You fucking looser's

[joeldalton]

You limp wrists would get your asses handed to you again.

[Anonymous]

cry more red coat, we sent your asses back across the sea

[love_conquers_lust]

Hahaha. This guy is great.

[Anonymous]

Watch Hamilton on Disney plus

[Pterodon]

You surrendered so you tell us

[888theGreat]

British would be easy to beat , very weak
