I guess we as Americans are lucky that we didn't have ''tourists'' on our soil during the Revolutionary War. God Forbid if a tourist is inconvenienced over the locals problems with government. Also, I guess it would've been total chaos in Washington DC during the Civil Rights movement, the protests against the Vietnam War etc....since maybe some tourists would've been inconvenienced. I sure am glad that this never happened here in the USA (said VERY sarcastically). GET OVER IT PEOPLE...WHAT HAPPENED WAS THEIR RIGHT!!!!!!!! AND ......THEY WON!!!!!!!!

I still can't believe how narrow minded and self centered some people here are...... and......the people bitching weren't even there on the island at the time.
