Why do the British (England) have 3 lions as a symbol when they didnt fight lions or live in the zoo?

Question

By the way they ruled and were leaders because they were selfish and had no value for human life or respect, also reason why they ruled because the opposition were outnumbered and they weren;t selfish and didnt wantr to conquer other ppl, they had respect for other cultuers and people, whereas English people are jeleous and wanted other people's culture and land, they were NOT tough or strong but infact the people they ruled were outnumbered and were people who could have ruled other countries but they have dignity , repect and value for human life. the English are Devils i say, lol, well at the time anyway, now they are ruled at home by immigrants, the tables have turned i say, lol.

I think you are living in a fantasy world, believing the propaganda of some group. Just about every group of people—from the dawn of humans until just recently—has slaughtered other people. Some just do it better—some are better fighters...some are smarter fighters...some are better at building large civilizations, thereby outnumbering other groups...etc., etc., etc.

Who knows what groups YOU belonged to in previous lives? Who knows what crimes against Mother Earth, against wildlife, against humanity YOU committed. We know one thing...you are here on Earth in yet another course on your way to becoming a nice person.

Some British people are snobbish and condescending, but many are not. Who are you to judge a whole large group of people...isn't that what a bigot does? How do you suppose you got this way? Maybe you have always been this way? Maybe you are one of the murderers of innocents in past lives? ♪♫ ♪♫

Answer 2

A species of lion was once native to the British Isles. They were hunted largely by the gentry and noblemen as well as by the King's army when one terrorized the villages. It then came to symbolize the crown along with other heraldic devices.

You don't seem to like the English much, we weren't alone in what you described, in fact every european country did it at one time or another. and the US is doing it now.
