What is a Yankee?

The term Yankee and its contracted form Yank have several interrelated meanings, all referring to people from the United States. Its various senses depend on the context and may refer to New Englanders, residents of the Northern United States, or Americans in general. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, it is "a nickname for a native or inhabitant of New England, or, more widely, of the northern States generally".

Outside the United States, Yank is used informally to refer to an American person or thing. It has been especially popular in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Canada, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand where it may be used variously with uncomplimentary overtones or cordially.

In the Southern United States, Yankee is a derisive term which refers to all Northerners, and during the American Civil War was applied by Confederates to soldiers of the Union army in general.

As a result of the British gaining of Dutch's colony in North America, New Amsterdam changed its name into New York.

New Amsterdam was founded in 1625 by the Dutch West Indian Company, and was located on the southern tip of the island of Manhattan, strategic and defensible place for the fluvial access of the fur trade in the Hudson Valley.

It became the largest Dutch settlement in North America and remained in the hands of the Netherlands until 1664, when it passed into the hands of England. The Dutch regained it briefly in 1673 and relinquished it to England in 1674 under the terms of the Treaty of Westminster that ended the Third Anglo-Dutch War, renaming the English the settlement as New York.

In 200 words describe whether or not you think it is ever okay to kill others for a greater good.

Answers

Answer:

This is a sketchy subject, but to kill is an abomination. One the the ten commandments is to not murder, but,

lets say that you spotted a terrorist, and you have a gun. This man is about to kill thousands of people. Would you shoot? Most people would say yes. How is this any different from a single murder done by a man?

It is actually simple. Defense, you are defending yourself or others, and saving many more souls by killing one. Now, if there is another way to disarm the threat, by all means do so. but if your only option was to kill or let others be killed. The acceptable thing to do, would be, to shoot.
