Quoting: Anonymous Coward 3939038 [link to www.twitch.tv] this guy is british, he went to a californian college. That guy doesn't sound anything even remotely close to the guy in the video. You're a total bullshitter. There are many American accents, as I said in my above post it is an example. |

You get dumber with every post bro. You clearly don't have the intellectual capacity to begin to understand my reasoning, I am showing you an example of how a non "American" that can acquire an "American" accent or some resemblance of one.

And none of those are an exact match to a californian accent. Same difference in the U.K. many different accents from just down the road. On top of that anyone can be trained to have an accent. |

Hm, weird perception. Still mass of land have to be part of a continent unless its big enough to be a continent itself. Every single territory on this planet is market to a continent. So again, wich continent does UK belong to? In their imperial mindset we are the isle and England is the continent Don´t speak to deluded ppl I've run into this with the English, too. They get huffy if you call them European. Guess what guys: You are Euros. There are only 7 continents. |

According to Lieutenant Colonel Robert Bockholt, a public affairs officer with US Special Operations Command, American forces are conducting black ops and shadow wars in 133 countries – roughly 70% of the nations on the planet. This capped a three-year span in which the country’s forces were active in more than 150 countries, carrying out missions ranging from kill and capture raids to terrorist training exercises, wars and coups - with unforeseen blowbacks and catastrophic consequences. Just for the record, some 405,000 people have been killed as a result of the US-led war in Iraq. Some 200,000 people have also been killed in Syria where America’s “moderate” terrorists are pushing for regime change in Damascus. The US is also a major threat to its own people: It is the world’s largest incarcerator of people, with some 2.3 million in prison – one million of whom are African Americans. <50% Read the rest here: [link to english.farsnews.com] |
