Nobody here disagreed either. Think positive, man!
On the other hand, last night I stopped for a quick beer or five at the bar, and there he was: in his early thirties, blueish stubbles, hanging nose, purplish lips, caterpillaresque uni-brow, mouthing off about his travels around the world, and how he always felt safe no matter where he went, and the most dangerous place in the world must be the US, yea, and a Argentinian cab driver allegedly was totally flabbergasted when he told him he would return to America "But you'll get killed there, everybody knows that!" And on and on he went, how every friggen hellhole in the 3rd world was a better place to be, and nobody dares to come to the US for they fear for there lives, hallelujah. "Well, how come people still get themselves killed then, trying to get INTO this here terrible place, riddle me [i]that[/i], Shmuel." Any given illegal beaner has more allegiance to the home of his choice than [i]that[/i] kind of "cosmopolitan", "objective" and "worldly" (1) scum.
If you don't like this country that has accepted you or your ancestors with open arms, then you're free to leave it. But don't go around bad-mouthing America, or you might end up in a ditch.
(1) not bad traits in itself, if they were actually present. But I just get a hard-on if I hear somebody claiming to posess them and he's actually no smarter or more "cosmopolitan" than some smalltown accountant from Romania.
