Rioting and looting of art treasures at the mansion house - be assured that I'd be the one doing more looting than rioting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTone Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 Money on the french to do it, only people that seem to like rioting. Yep, am on my way to Paris to organise the first one. For good measure we might blockade a few ports as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Mosquito Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 Yep, am on my way to Paris to organise the first one. For good measure we might blockade a few ports as well. La Marseillaise - French National Anthem in English and it's all about killing impure blooded tyrannical Toffs - I love it and am singing it with real gusto. ...... Let's go children of the fatherland, The day of glory has arrived! Against us tyranny's Bloody flag is raised! (repeat) In the countryside, do you hear The roaring of these fierce soldiers? They come right to our arms To slit the throats of our sons, our friends! Refrain Grab your weapons, citizens! Form your batallions! Let us march! Let us march! May impure blood Water our fields! This horde of slaves, traitors, plotting kings, What do they want? For whom these vile shackles, These long-prepared irons? (repeat) Frenchmen, for us, oh! what an insult! What emotions that must excite! It is us that they dare to consider Returning to ancient slavery! What! These foreign troops Would make laws in our home! What! These mercenary phalanxes Would bring down our proud warriors! (repeat) Good Lord! By chained hands Our brows would bend beneath the yoke! Vile despots would become The masters of our fate! Tremble, tyrants! and you, traitors, The disgrace of all groups, Tremble! Your parricidal plans Will finally pay the price! (repeat) Everyone is a soldier to fight you, If they fall, our young heros, France will make more, Ready to battle you! Frenchmen, as magnanimous warriors, Bear or hold back your blows! Spare these sad victims, Regretfully arming against us. (repeat) But not these bloodthirsty despots, But not these accomplices of Bouillé, All of these animals who, without pity, Tear their mother's breast to pieces! ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Sacred love of France, Lead, support our avenging arms! Liberty, beloved Liberty, Fight with your defenders! (repeat) Under our flags, let victory Hasten to your manly tones! May your dying enemies See your triumph and our glory! Refrain We will enter the pit When our elders are no longer there; There, we will find their dust And the traces of their virtues. (repeat) Much less eager to outlive them Than to share their casket, We will have the sublime pride Of avenging them or following them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not anti-English at all, it's the song of the French Revolution !!!!!!! The French Revolution that saw the guillotining of the whole French Royal family and tens of thousands of French aristocrats (Toffs). 'May impure blood water our fields' - that's about the French peasant revolutionaries watering their fields with the blood of their former French inbred blue blooded aristocratic masters. The execution of King Louis XVI in what is now the Place de la Concorde, facing the empty pedestal where the statue of his grandfather, King Louis XV, had been smashed down by an angry mob. ......
