Don't Want All Those Brown People Having Equal Representation (sh.itjust.works)

Context: Donald Trump spewing bullshit about annexing Canada and Greenland. Meanwhile, Congress has been dragging their feet for YEARS on resolving Puerto Rico's territorial status.

Citizens living in US territories do not receive equal representation in congress. For instance, PR has one "delegate" to the House (not an official voting member) and no senators. Taxation without representation.

Although, at this point I wouldn't blame PR if they changed their minds about wanting to become the 51st state.

I mean:

  • rivers
  • lakes
  • fjords
  • towns
  • counties
  • castles
  • fortresses
  • weapons
  • admirals
  • knights of the round table
  • legendary heroes
  • predatory animals

And if you really have hundreds of vessels (say destroyers) you could just number them.
