This they have done, and are still doing, notwithstanding the base and cruel measures fallen upon by those in power, in Britain and America, to prevent their procuring the means of defence; in which, however, they have hitherto been unsuccessful, as the Americans have, though at a great expense, been supplied with ammunition sufficient to enable them to maintain a defensive war for many months, during which time they have used every method that could be devised, to prevail with the governing powers in Britain to repeal their unjust and cruel acts, and to revive that peace and harmony which formerly subsisted between Britain and America. Petitions, addresses, &c, have been sent to them, and that repeatedly, in hopes that at last they would meet with the desired and deserved success. But alas! Britons thirst for American blood!We're not unique. Moral people try everything in their power to resolve things peaceably, and through "the system." It's only when all means of doing this have been barred that the potential for everything going to hell becomes likely.
It seems others "above" us haven't learned a dam thing,or show any concern for our history. I often wonder anymore if the ping and the ring in my ears is history resonating back to us.
