I did say to our "untrained foreign stupid American tourist ears"
Personally, I think most Americans should just stay at home and not leave the good old U.S. cuz we can be such obnoxious tourists sometimes, always expecting the host country to learn our language. We are complete idiots sometimes...I mean, look at our president! A "C" average student who only went to Yale because his dad was so rich and he had a drunk driving arrest! (sorry just venting some anger here)

*Runs away from citizens of all other countries who hate the stupid Americans who completely changed the course of the world starting in about 1918 and made them learn another language*

Ahhh but remember...in today's army it's not the total amount of troops that count...it's their video game scores

First guy to click the buttons in the right pattern wipes out 500,000 troops LOL

lol, I have nothing against england actually (apart from this particular girl.. oh well, never mind), it's just that I don't know any other people more proud to belong to their own country than US people.

Good lord... Man I remember when I went into the service. Its forced over here.... But after boot camp, it was really sweet. Made lots of friends, shot with automatic rifles, blew stuff up and got screamed at . But man was it fun!

Oh, BTW, I have returned from my long vacation.

Britain is downright fanatical. You've got the IRA proud to be Irish, the Ulster Unionists who are proud to be...err...Irish, the Scottish Nationalist Political Activists who are proud to be Scottish, the BNP who are proud to be English/British. Then you've got the Pakistanis, Indian, Turks and Koreans who are all proud to be British. The only people who aren't proud to be British are the Africans.

And the American people didn't give a **** about their country (they may have thought they did but they didn't) until someone smashed two jumbo-jets into it.

That is what we like to refer to as a wake up call.

So true... In fact, I had said after the fact that we are so much more diversified than even 1941-1945 that patriotism is so different now. As in nonexistent (until 9/11) Now that some guys got on two different planes and rammed them into some really big buildings and killed a lot of people we get really
[list=a]

• Pissed off at everybody and tell them to cooperate or else (Dubya throwing around the military might again) and
• Yay rah rah USA! patriotic
[/list=a]
maybe in the end 9/11 was actually good for us in the fact that it

was a wakeup call and it said ""We are just as vulnerable as anybody else!"
But then this whole unpatriotic thing in the USA goes back to the fact that we are a gigantic melting pot and all kinds of people come here and are many times more loyal to their old country than to their new.

[LtNarol]

ya, i was pissed after 9/11, especially since i had friends who died in that incident.  As for patriotism?  I was born in China, I am Chinese, and I still love the U.S. of A. one hell of a lot more.

I didn't say everybody who immigrates to the US has more loyalty to their home country, just some

Techincal, bastard...

As for patrotism after 9/11...MHO is still the same.  I don't agree with liberals and I don't like trendy things such as the new "crave" which is patroitism.(sp*)  Most ppl now I noticed are more self centered and have what old ppl call "lesser morals", I agree with the old ppl to an extend.  But who cares what I think, I'm the guy that gets bored and wrights a bunch of stuff on his arm at school that offends everybody.  Next time ill get a camera and show ya.

they are German anyway. See Charlemagne and the Frankish Empire (800AD). And the Franks were a German tribe so.

Oh hell, they're all Romans, exept for those that lived on Scotland, Ireland or on the wrong side of the Rine/Danube/Roman borders of course
