He spells "honor" as "honour". Is this based on UK law? What good is it to us?

If it ain't the law in the US that Fuck You is sufficient to decline vaccination, we must make it the law. The unwritten law.

I also spell honour, colour, etc. USA. Little bit of history: they were spelled this way in America for a long time, until newspapers (which cost by the letter to print) cut the u out to save costs.

Anyway, when you start typing 'yor' instead of 'your' then you can tell me I'm wrong.

Why on earth would you adopt British spellings?

Did you read my reply? I didn't adopt anything. I spell my English words correctly. The old MSM took away the necessary for phonetics 'u' out of several words that require it. I don't believe the MSM determines truth.

Again, see 'your' which has the same phonetic suffix as colour and honour, as given by the consonant + our.

What kind of game are you playing here, pal? I just opened up a 1791 facsimile of Paine's Common Sense and found "favor" and "honor" inside of three pages.

The question remains. Why are you using British spellings? The idea that British spellings are "correct" is really daft. Do you hate America?
