I'm proud of being human....that's about as far as it goes for me. But for someone who hasn't even been out of the country (you've been to Okinawa probably) you really have no right to make any opinion about any other person. You have a lot to learn, just about life in general. Some day perhaps ignorance will be a thing of the past....but not as long as there are people like you in this world.

I jumped the gun a bit. Just thought you were about to start spewing racist rubbish.

How sad am I? I've just searched for that thread and can't find it. Just turned the iron off, made an instant coffee and am ready for the next lot.

That's hard to believe. My husband is a marine and he shows people a whole lot more respect than you seem to know how to.

I feel honored you all have dedicated the last 5 pages to going right after me. Please, by all means continue.

And for the record, any Marine would feel the same if they felt that you're pissing in their yard-so to speak.

You have no idea who I am....nor what I look like. You are making generalisations. I am me and I'm happy with whom I am. Some of the happiest times I've ever had were living in Britain. When we moved back here I was amazed at how horribly bad this country had become. Or so I thought, in fact I was looking at this country with new eyes, so the country probably had never changed, I had.

You are nothing more than an American robot. Programmed to think you're in the greatest country in the world. What you don't realise is that America is a part of ONE WHOLE WORLD. Its not the world in itself. Its a shame that more people can't realise that....including you. You make me sad, extremely, because your pathetic way of looking at life is what is so very wrong with a lot of people in general. Sorry, now I'm making generalisations....I supposed its easy, all things considering.

You are only going to get yourself banned. You would probably be best off if you just quit now.

All you are doing is solidifying the view that a lot of people have of Americans. People have the right to say whatever they like about America. Accept that some of it may not be good.

You come into a Brit expat forum and start making trollish comments with your first post... You can't then expect that people will just sit back and say "OK, you're right, sorry".

You obviously don't understand that Brits moan about everything because we CAN moan about everything. Accept it!

And a fine representative of the Marine Corps you make.

I've been to a few events where they don't drink. One lady very snootily told me "we don't drink in front of our children", so I asked her "then how the **** are they going to learn?"




p.s. Just trying to get us back on topic here. Leave the idiot be.
