[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]You knew the deal when you chose to live there. That has been the deal for 200+ years. Suck it up.[/quote] I would support statehood even if I didn’t live in DC because, unlike you,[b] I believe in the values held by those who rebelled against British rule[/b]. I don’t believe in second class citizens. This is really an issue of values. [/quote] Those who rebelled against British rule were [i]exactly[/i] the ones who wrote the document that defines the (non-state) status of DC. That DC is not a state is self-evidently consistent with their values.[/quote] +1. Previous poster speaking of values seems to love imperialist British values.[/quote]
