this is actualy to put things in perspective. so many people are so biased and anti american and say things and critisize others without looking at themselves in the mirror and recognizing that they have faults too.

Actually he makes a point, theres a shit load of prejudice toward Americans here, but we say something about another country we get warned lol. Guess America is just open game. But anyone who judges whole groups on some are ignorant anyway.

idunno maybe im tired of getting shit for being an American being labled as a dumbass, a faliure, a fanatic, ect if i were to say the same things that people have said to about america about another country i would probobly get flamed for being racist, warned or temporarily banned by a mod which when you think about it is bullshit, I also am tired of dumb nubs steryotyping me and saying rude shit, but then wine and complain when i say somthing back. maybe what i should be saying that Anti-Americanisim is essentialy racisim for those who dont realy use their brain that often

this is stupid, and also, it's WHETHER, not WEATHER. go learn english before you come on here bragging about being an "American". Stop treating your country like it's your favorite football team. douche

Somebody should lock this before it turns into a shitstorm. We've had threads drag on for pages and pages because people wouldn't shut the hell up about America. I know because I was usually the one telling them to get bent and giving them reasons why they were wrong.

well excuse me for being informal, and secondly im not bragging about anything, Im making a statement, about Prejudice directed at americans and how its bullshit that that is Tolerated when doing the same thing about another nationality gets you punished/flamed.ect Im sorry if my incorrect spelling offended you or whatever. and as far as the favorite football team thing. please clarify.

i dont think this should be locked. There should be real debate about what is acceptable and what is not. If your going to say making Prejudice comments is unacceptable behavior then it should apply to all nationalities, races, religions ect. Ignorant people need some education on this matter and if this gets locked then unfair Prejudice against Americans will continue to be accepted, which is unfair

His point is Americans are not as stupid as they are portrayed to be. (I'm going to disagree and sit this one out. If you moved to the south (conservative south) after living in the north all your life, you will see (no joke) an astonishing difference in Knowledge)

Most people know less than they actually believe (my self included) we are fallible, we make mistake, Americans are not morbidly obese or mentally retarded. We're people and as people we may not make the right decisions, but at least we don't go around belittling other nations. (yes i know, i just contradicted myself with that last statement :roll: )

exactly Its almost funny when you think about how close minded you have to be to belive such things, and contrary to popular belief there are plenty of smart, intelligent educated people everywhere (including the south) this statement also applies to dummasses, like intelligent people they exist in every country, nationality, race, religon probobly in equal perportions

well the media portraits Americans as kinda Larger than life type of living. I know that's just a prejudice way of seeing the American population as a whole. Not all Americans are bad, its just some of them make your country look bad. Similarly, not all Chinese are bad drivers, just some of them that makes us all look bad.

and I see this tread more of a rant thread than anything else :) no offense. I know how you feel and I am glad you found an output for it, instead of shooting everyone on the street.

lol if i want to rant about something or get my frustrations out verbaly i do to my freinds or family, this thread is about making a point and hopefully changing the way some people think and/or act

no offense taken

im sure there is but if someone in a thread was going to say (warning this is not my view just an example) "all arabs are religious fanatics and suicide bombers" then there would probobly be a fair bit of outrage likely disiplinary action by a moderater, flaming ect. but if someone does the same about americans it is tolerated. which is not right
