It wasn't even in America lol, it was in Guyana
Wasn’t taught in our history as it was done by Americans. Why do you think the country location matters?
It doesn't, but the person I was replying to brought it up lol.
Also yes, I'm well aware it was a bunch of crazy Americans :p
Edit: oh it was literally you lmfao, yeah because you said you weren't American
I don't think it was taught in school either, pretty sure I just read about it online or in a book.
Well a quick google showed that it involved Americans, I didn’t want to spend an hour researching to get a potentially missable joke. So I asked.
I did a little research before asking dude. Your comment just makes you look foolish. It’s doubtful that anyone BUT Americans would know about it, since it was Americans, who else?
If a story comes up about Vietnam war, you would ask the same thing since Americans were involved, even though it was in another country… come on dude lmfao.
Do you propose that I ask the Guyans or something…? Like seriously, your comment makes zero point. I’m sure they understand English and would provide the right context…. Especially since their citizens were involved…..
You're being a bit of a cunt
And the other user is being a massive moron, you want to defend that? Lmfao.
Who
The person suggesting to ask Guyans about an American caused travesty…
Seriously, who else would be referred to here?
Not sure what you mean
Yeah that’s why you’re defending them. Yeesh. Lmfao.
Dude tried to mock someone for asking Americans about an American tragedy, because it took place elsewhere and they thought they didn’t research.
They showed they did do research to see it was Americans first. So the user is just a bloody moron, doubly so for trying to laugh and mock the person.
I'm trying to figure that out....
Pointing out the glaring obvious to someone who missed it tends to make people think that about the one doing so, yes.
I don't really understand why you are making such a big deal out of this, have a good rest of your day.
You already had your answer from other comments at the point I replied
The only one making a big deal out of anything is you.
And yet you felt the need to open your mouth? Why? All you’ve done is make a fool of yourself.
You are very unpleasant enjoy the block
