Just because I don't know what a Liberty ship is, doesn't mean I don't respect my country. I wouldn't be to hasty to judge people over a lack of knowledge on WWII boats.
you pretended to know about the disaster in the very city you live in and you were grossly wrong, i merely provided a starting point for you to educate yourself so you do not look foolish while attempting to seem knowledgeable again.
i recall a teacher in highschool that tried to teach the class that 3 aircraft carriers were destroyed in the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. this was a US history teacher. i argued with her and finally pulled up the internet. being wrong is one thing, being wrong on important events in US history like the worst industrial disaster ever, well that is disrespectful imo, so educate yourself.
