Loyalist Or Patriot And Why?

Pfft, whatever, I'd rather live under tyranny than ask France for help.
Shit, I never thought of it that way.
If time ran in reverse into 200-300 years ago, I'd be a patriot.
But nowadays, Britain is much more liberal and has much more tolerance than America... So I'm stuck in between.

This. I'm no patriot of America. I would have been at the time though.
The loyalist legions serve a false emperor who is deaf to their pleas. We shall crush the universe, like ripened fruit in out hands; and engorge ourselves on the juices that flow.
Die heretic!
And can I have a cool English accent if I join?It depends...do we get to keep those cool English accents?

Let's be loyal towardspizza then! because I don't know what I am apparantly forced to be loyal towards either.
Poll is missing neither category. Historically the colonies were split into thirds between the three choices.
Also, the 'British' accent developed after the American revolution so technically, the American accent is closer to 'true' British than what the British speak today.
@EsotericArt: My bad, I assumed people would have strong feelings about this subject.
Apparently not everyone does.
I was super bummed to find out the tanned sexy Australians with their penal colony ancestors were still bowing down to the queen. I'd love for them to be state 51. I could be like, boom! California, Hawaii, Guam, Australia, and never need a passport. You can keep your national identity and even your hatred of the American national identities, that would make you no different than the north or the south.

Let me see those sources Jensen!
@Mistzero: Not this Jensen fellow. But when you do find him, tell him to get me a soda, preferably one of a lemon-lime variety.
A text on the American Revolution should set you up; contrary to the common misconception, not everything is on the internet (or at least I'm too tired to see if it is up right now).
A stint as a scrivener in a linguistics course/ net browsing instead of studying for chemistry.
Neither I guess,....I'm out for me and my family first. I picked loyalist though, because we could have just had a non-violent revolution later.
Clearly that's what I said instead of "fuck republicans for stealing the term."@MrKlorox said:
edit: Patriotism is associated with the right, so definitely not that. I'm loyal to my country, I think, so I guess that.I'm not a patriot, I'm just *definition of patriot*
Someone just had a stroke.
I got this Deus Ex Machina ark you should look at.The book of Origin tell us that enemies of the Ori will show no mercy in their attempt to lead us astray from the true path, likewise we must attack with all the Strength which we have been given.
Hallowed are the Ori
