Remember Remember the Fifth of November, the Gunpowder Treason and Plot...

... I know of no reason why gunpodwer treason should ever be forgot!

Happy Guy Fawkes day everyone. Today's the day where we can celebrate one of the most famous domestic terrorists (though i see him as a freedom fighter) and his attempt to blow up the British Parliment!

You are joking? The guy they caught was just a pawn, i see no reason to remember him for being an idiot and getting caught. Yes the day/event itself should be remembered but as for good old guy, wrong place, wrong time im afraid. They never caught the 'ring leaders' :/ on a more personal note i'm going to a huuuuge fireworks display tonight! xD

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a bygone vexation stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose vis-à-vis an introduction, so let me simply add that it's my very good honour to meet you and you may call me V.

Pawn? Yes. Did his point and cause still get across? yes(except taht parliment wasnt blown up lol). He still has been known throughout history for it, even if he was a pawn...

WTF?

He was known throughout history for being the douche who was stupid enough to get caught, the brains behind it go no credit therefore i refuse to give that idiot any credit and disagree with anyone that holds him in high reguard.

HE was the demolitions expert. HE was the one who paid his life for a causehe belived in so greatly. HE was the one who the figurehead. That Robert Catsby guy didnt get caught and only said 'lets blow up Parliment'. Guy was the one who help RObert with the plan since he actually knew HOW to do it. So the Robert dude gets littel credit, yes, but thats all he really deserves.

Adam, youve never heard of Gu Fawkes?

LOL if he was that much of a demolitions expert why didn't parliment go 'boom'?

I'm english, i know all about it but i stand by my POV. Nice pitch tho, i was under the impression there were multiple conspiritors not just Catsby who thought it up, maybe my knowledge is flawed? who know's ^^
