ditto. Yorick, why DO you keep bringing this up? If I look back tho the IWs topics over the last yr or so, I see tons of topics like this, mostly posted by YOU.. I'm not trying to be critical, but you seem to have this "thing" about Anti Americanism... to be perfectly frank, I dont care, I really dont give a damn about what the rest of the world thinks about America, your "beloved" country, or your flag, I'm probably being very offensive, but... in fact, I dont really care about any other country. The people in the countries are a different matter; some or even most of my "friends" on Iws happen to be American, and to be honest, I'm honoured to call them friends, as I said, I'm not having a go at Americans, and I hope none of you take this personally. I realise that most americans see their flag as an icon, a symbol of your country, but... imho you DO seem to go on about it a lot, maybe becoz in the rest of the worlds eyes, you have no culture, again, I'm not trying to be offensive, and probably am, and feel free to correct me. I know what happened on september the 11th was tragic and should never have happened, but WHY do you keep going on about it?! move on, the living must look to the living, yes, the dead should be remembered and mourned, and yes, you should grieve, but... ok, I'll shut up, I get a strong feeling this will probably get me banned, but... How many others here feel that Yorick should give it a rest ? I just kinda feel that the dead are dead, and theres nothing anyone can do; let the dead rest. You just seem to bring it up WAAAY to often Yorick, imo.
On the hate topic, I dislike the goverments of EVERY country, and as I've said, the people are very much different in most cases. As whacks said, "we're one big happy family" here, cant we **try** to keep it that way? Hasnt there been enough arugin already?[/QUOTE]You have missed the point. There ARE posts with anti-whatever sentiments being posted even now. It is still continuing which is WHY it is being brought up again. Yorick isn't the one doing the posts. Because it is ongoing, it is being addressed.
I am sure if someone were repeatedly saying things about your country, you would be a little sensitive to it by now.
