Bro, it's so cool that they compromised and met both sides needs. We need more of that today, instead the loony lefties are trying to push for their extremist shit.

Imagine how much worse it would have been for slaves in the US if they were still under British rule? It's a good thing they were able to set aside their problems and only focus on defeating the British. That allowed them to peacefully work it out as soon as the war was over and avoided any problems with ending slavery.
