Seriously though, whatever legitimate point they might have, it goes right out of the window when they start wearing costumes. With me at least. I just find that kind of protest to be ridiculous. And so I ridicule them.

I agree with you about the costumes, but you seem to be forgetting that the Americans of that time WERE and considered themselves British. So I can understand his point, even if I don't agree with the concept.
