ABC’s Hostin: Queen Elizabeth Wore Crown of ‘Pillaged Stones’ — Monarchy Built on Backs of Black, Brown People
Breitbart ^ | 09/09/2022 | Pam Key

Posted on 09/09/2022 1:15:33 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

ABC legal analyst Sunny Hostin said Friday on “The View” that late Queen Elizabeth II wore a crown with jewels “pillaged from India and Africa” that represented a monarchy “built on the backs of black and brown people.”

Hostin said during the panel discussion about the queen’s death, “I studied in London, and so I lived in London for a while. I got caught up in the pomp and circumstance of it all as well. I wanted to see the changing of the guards. I wanted to see everything. I wanted to meet the queen because I think we all love glam and pageantry. I think, though, we can mourn the queen and not the empire.”

The only time those Black and Brown people did anything but sit in their own shit outside mud huts was when the Brits made them.

Many people [criminals, tribal enemies] sold off as slaves to Western shippers would have simply been executed if they were not sold.

[There were undoubtedly raids on rival tribes to round up merchandise.]

Self determination. All peoples are entitled to it. There would be 5000 countries if they were created along those likes and they’d be constantly evolving. Acquiring natural resources were the motives of colonists. How you going to convince them the resources were not stolen? Fiji can thank the Brits for all the folks from India taking power until a coup by the natives took place. Just who was there first? French Polynesia. Who owns the fish in those million square miles, the French, Polynesians, or the soon-to-be Chicoms? There is an independence movement in the Islands.

Almost all slaves sold for Western Hemisphere slavery were rounded up and first vended by African blacks.

No Empire is perfect, and they all want new land and therefore will go to war. But don’t forget to see the differences in empires. The British have given us the Magna Carta, have given us the idea that we have inalienable rights, have fought to end slavery. They are a very humane in comparison to other empires and have given us a remarkable science and free speech. Which we benefit from today…

Plus yellow and even white people if you consider the Northern Irish “oppressed.”

"A recent series of papers co-authored by Hoover Property Rights Task Force members Daron Acemoglu and James Robinson found that there were advantages from colonization as well, especially for those colonies within the British Empire. English institutions, such as the common law, property rights security, contract enforcement, and banking and trading practices provided a positive basis for economic growth in the colonies that has persisted.

...

"Several conclusions can be drawn from this historical experience.

Once in place, they have long-lasting implications for the countries’ patterns and levels of economic growth. Fortunately for the inhabitants of most of the former British Empire, even those in tropical countries, institutions that promoted growth were adopted, in some cases over 200 years ago, and their advantages remain.

The Bright Side of British Colonialism English institutions—the common law, property rights, and banking—led to economic growth in the colonies.

Queen Elizabeth II saw the dismantling of the British colonial system (except for India & Pakistan).

“The overall size of the Colonial Service changed greatly through the 20th century. In 1900 there were only about 1,000 overseas posts. There was an expansion after the First World War, then a slow-down during the 1930s, with an estimated number of about 8,000 in 1938. Numbers boomed after the Second World War, rising to just over 11,000 posts in 1947, and a peak of about 18,000 in 1954. Thereafter the size of the Service shrank rapidly as most territories attained independence, until its formal end with the hand-over of Hong Kong to China on 1 July 1997. A number of HMOCS Police officers and others stayed on to serve the SAR government.”

Colonization filled a lot of history books, but it filled comparatively few wallets.

The English were arguably the fiercest, most pitiless warriors the world has ever known. They ruled the world in their day. They fought and died in large numbers to deserve those rocks, if nothing else.

I’ll never understand why these ungrateful jackasses never think about the good that colonization brought to their craphole countries.

“Honi soit qui mal y pense”

Engraved right on the Shield of the Royal coat of arms of the United Kingdom.

Literally translated, “Shame be to him who thinks evil of it”

Someone should ask Ms. Hostin how many people of color Deep State has injured and killed with its CoupFlu vaxxes...

How many voters of color Deep State has put out of work with the worst economic conditions in generations...

How many voters of color Deep State disenfranchised with the stolen election...

How about those people, Ms. Hostin?
