I'm talking about calling Americans (as in *ALL* Americans)
evil, stupid, greedy, dumb,

*snipped*

Hugs,

I think case in point here (we haven't left for Denver yet... in the morning
btw) is something similar that happened to me earlier.

A week or so ago, in a chat room I visit we were discussing among ourselves
the infant that was removed from her mother, resulting in a homicide on the
mother's part. Another individual vists quite often, she lives in Tel Aviv
Israel. Instantly she virtually threw up her arms and exclaimed "WHAT'S WITH
AMERICANS!" etc etc because in the last month there have been two infant
deaths in our media and they were both from the USA. That offended me a
great deal but of course, smartass b*tchymouthed Gracie threw back that
until recently the greater area of the persian gulf and African regions
performed preadolscent genital removals on young girls. "What's with the
arabs?"

You'd have thought I threw boiling water on an already wet hen. And I have
nothing against the location folks, I *know* that many locals there are
against the genital mutilation, in fact it's widely NOT practiced.

Oh, it went back and forth for a while until she was using twisting
confusing logic that she loved America and wants to live here but she never
hears about crimes in any other country like she does the US. My response
that she spent most of her time in an American-esque chatroom, that yes it
stood to reason she'd hear USA and Canadian news more readily than she would
of other places. We may have some deviant criminals and women that need to
be shot (some of these stories kept me in tears a week) but it's not a
requirement you *must* be American to abuse your child. In the end she
just "retired to her non-american corner" since she was clearly
misunderstood and picked on.

A few minutes later someone picked up on that what makes America so hated by
other countries is our leader. Sure, I can accept that just as soon as you
explain to me how Bush was responsible for someone cutting out an unborn
child from it's mother.
