   Dear USA

   Deploying troops against civilians will not go well.

   Yours
   Great Britain and Northern Ireland

     @davidallengreen LOL please. I'm going to tell you two things.
     
     First, the myth about civilians isn't working anymore, because we still remember how it all ended. Irish terrorists were unstoppable and nothing Britain did could ever end them. And then, the 9/11 happened. George W Bush enacted regulations that banned financing of terrorists. Because he wanted to be politically correct, he banned all terrorists, not just Muslim ones. And so, overnight IRA ran out of steam and sued for peace. All it took was to stop financing them from abroad.
     
     Second, exactly the same troops were deployed in the same place when the same people rioted in 1992. And it went very well.
     
     Silly bongs know nothing and try to teach us.
