This video is just as boring as my U.S. History Class. I tried to comprehend what he said, but it just went in me as blah blah blah, and came out as something about japanese.

This video reminded me a quote from a war film. quote = dam it I'm an American What makes me different from German-American or Italian-American. When you considor there is evidance that German Americans did do harm with-in america makes you think if America had blinkers on after Pearl Harbour (no offense)
