    I am also part British and Welsh. I happen to be related to British royalty. I think you should consider your mutt comment and look in the mirror. You don’t have the blood type to be calling me a mutt, or anything along the lines of a dog.

      Okay now you are just making it worse. You do understand what a mutt is right? And what pedigree is? Pedigree breading leads to inbred dogs. Mutts are almost always healthier because of their genetic diversity. Mutts just means dogs not from a specific pedigree, meaning they are often crossbred.

      Also how do you even know you are from British royalty? More importantly why would that be a good thing? The British have been oppressors in the past, which you seem to have completely missed. I understand why Americans want to be seen as Irish or Scottish. It’s because these are/were oppressed peoples and identifying with them makes you think you have moral superiority. In reality America is one of the most oppressive nations to exist, and is trying to put British history to shame. It’s a way of escaping white guilt and particularly American guilt, to avoid the fact that maybe your ancestors owned slaves, or that even now America is assisting in genocide.
