Dude ... chill.

Actually, the French Revolution was partly inspired by the American one, and the French did assist the Americans against the Brits.

Peace!

GO FUG yoursef, ya dumbass !

Whoa!

It's not nice to fight Mr. Rational.

Don't worry. No one is in his America except him. That would be cell #1954 at the asylum for the babbling thoughtless...lol.

Dude ... chill.

Actually, no French...no U.S.A. The vast majority of the financing and over 3/4 of the arms and gun powder for the American side were paid for or provided by the French. No French fleet or General Comte de Rochambeau ...no Franco-American victory at Yorktown. The final decisive victory at Yorktown was Rochambeau's plan not Washington's. Had the French fleet under Admiral de Grasse not defeated the English fleet at the battle of Chesapeake Capes there would have been no British surrender; and half the soldiers surrounding the British at Yorktown were French.

The cost: the French debt because of all of their support for American Revolutionaries was a significant cause in their own revolution. But the archaic McCathyite mush between someone's ears won't try to and CAN'T deal with any of these indisputable facts.

Merci beaucoup a tous les Francais pour leur soutien indispensable.

Cheers,

Merlot

There are plenty of American celebrations, no need to get a passport and leave the safe confines of the USA:

New York City has a large Bastille Day celebration each year on 60th Street on the Upper East Side of Manhattan
San Francisco has a large celebration in the downtown historic French quarter.
Philadelphia's Bastille Day, held at Eastern State Penitentiary, involves Marie Antoinette, with a cry of "Let them eat Tastykake!", throwing the locally-manufactured pastries at the Parisian militia, as well as a re-enactment of the storming the Bastille.[3]
Baltimore has a large Bastille Day celebration each year at Petit Louis in the Roland Park area of Baltimore City
Milwaukee's four-day [1] street festival begins with a "Storming of the Bastille" with a 43-foot replica of the Eiffel Tower.
Minneapolis has a celebration in Uptown with wine, French food, pastries, a flea market, circus performers and bands.
Seattle's Bastille Day Celebration, held at the Seattle Center, involves performances, picnics, wine and shopping.
