See unlike the yankee we are not burdened with self hatred (a holdover from the English), we love our home and history. Its always the union forever types to love America for only two points of history yet hate it 90% of the time.

0:21 is that an error i see?

The song says "fighting for _the_ property, " while the subtitles say "fighting for _our_ property, "

I hope I'm helping and not being a nitpicker ^^
