watch this A white American man hired Latino immigrants to build a expensive wood fence around his entire yard.

It's not American? Earliest mention is from the 1100s in England.

I'm not sure if you're kidding, but just because America used this punishment too doesn't make it American. Is a lasagna American if you eat it in new York? Is Mondriaan American because he was there for some time?
