Sepoy Mutiny British thinks they Could Do What They Want
The British think that they are the boss of us. They think they could belittle us. The British wants us to touch the most vile animal ever; pork. Not only do they want us to touch that it but they want us to put it in our mouth. They also want to make us use the most sacred animal for bullets. Are those Britts out of there mind? We are outraged that they would even think about it.
But they dont know that they have it coming. They will be very debilitated after were done with them. It just agravates me that they would even think about telling people who are high on the caste system what to do. Do they know who they are talking to? We should all just rebel and show them whos boss.
