you'd likely find the denizens there scoffing at your notion of loyalty, or even self identification with British anything.
Did I mention loyalty? Did I mention "self-identification"? Are Texans who want to accede not American? Were British colonists who wanted (and eventually got) their own nation still not British colonists in the same way?

Scuttled, very few here have any beef with American people. It is important to dissociate the people from the policies and actions of the politicians (and by extension the nation), and it is those actions with which I have an issue. If the politicians actually represented the people instead of those who paid for their campaigns then we'd see a very different country.
