    It certainly seems to do a better job than the British educational system.

      Better than posting nonsense about it.

        Yeah, it's so recent, isn't it?

          I don't think anyone had a strong claim before that. But our claim is rock solid now having owned them for 200 years and all the residents wanting to stay British.

            France and then Spain did. Almost fifty consecutive years of de facto control between the two of them, with the claim having been formally recognized by the British. This is the claim the Argentines claim to have inherited after independence.

            All the time and settlement in the world can't change the fact that you stole the islands by force.

              I love that people are actually arguing with Drake about this. This reminds me of one particular Thanksgiving where Kuci declared that Kansas wasn't a real place, and one of my aunts decided to argue with him.

                You/we stole North America by force. Give it back.

                  Now you're starting to make sense.

                    It isn't a real place. I know that, and I live here.
                    No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

                      I just thought he'd do a better job of it. It quickly reached the point where it wasn't worth going any further.

                        It's hard to have an interesting argument on this issue, given how clearly the British are in the wrong.

                            We need to get the Normans to give England back before we can start dealing with this Falklands ****.
