Still fightin' mad

Chicago Mayor William Thompson stomps on a framed portrait of King George III as he exclaims, "Down with England! I'll teach the King of England to pick on our colonists!" A bespectacled man proceeds to tell him, "But Bill, that happened in 1776 – over 150 years ago." Thompson then replies "Yes – but I just heard about it!" and returns to stomp on the portrait.
