"We are the best country", i know my country is great, but yeah there are lots of other countries just as good and just as free as we are, and i know we are a great country but im not an arrogant pig, i have been to ireland, germany france, they are amazing countries, just like my country, people stereotype me to be arrogant because you silly little kids are going about sayin rubbish, we are not better than anybody, everybody is the same, and you haven't been to every country. Stop being an arrogant pig and face reality, yes we are the most powerful, but so what, other countries are better for other things, i see some people with no lives saying things like "America is the best", and they dont even have good lives, they just say it because its a stupid tradition in this country. So hi other nationalities, you are free in my country even if you dislike it, thats my way, i enforce freedom unlike you hypocrites, with your "we are the land of the free" and than "love it or leave it".

For instance; A Spanish speaking "Gringo", or even an American Hispanic speaking proficiently to a native of another Spanish speaking country, and the native will only answer in English.Some people do it when they know your from "el Norte", even if you are hispanic yourself. It has happened to me a few times, and it made me a little angry.Sometimes I just did not hear what they said, and needed them to repeat it, and then, BOOM!,English from that point on.This has happened to me here in the US, and in Latin America.Am I wrong to feel slightly insulted?Thank you for you input!Gracias pa' el consejo!Ciao!

This is not meant to be racist at all so don't even bother saying that, I'll just ignore you. My question is why do most blacks act the same? I would say at least 95 percent of black females are all loud and have that same atttitude (you know what I'm talking about, but I don't really know how to explain it). And the same goes for males, I can't really explain the attitude but I'm sure you all know what I mean.

It seems that at least 95 percent are like that. I was wondering why this is? I mean just because they are the same race, why would most of them have the same personalities? Obviously I understand physical traits but not personality traits like this. Don't get me wrong, I love black people because I actually find it hilarious how they act! Thank you.

Or is it just a prejudice term? Do you think it's bad to be "white trash", even if you/they are happy?

What if we didn't have people like this...and they were competing for "higher end" jobs, instead of doing the janitorial-type jobs, or no job at all? What if they have a small mental disorder and can't help their tendencies...not to mention outside influences and poor environment?

I am not gothic or emo personally, but I do have freinds who are gothic and emo. They don't always wear black, and don't worship satan. They don't slit their wrists all the time, don't wanna kill people. They are just like everyone else, they have feelings too. I just wanna know why people don't like them. I have this girl in my study hall, she's not Gothic, or Emo, and she used to cut her self. This other girl in my sunday school class called Goth's and Emo's freaks. It really get's on my nerves. But I would like to know why people think badly about goth's and emo's.

Does anyone else think that by censoring things that few people find offensive we're giving away our freedom of speach?
The state of Maine has recently banned the sale of a beer called Santa's Butt Lager because they say the Santa illustration is attractive to children. Whatever happened to just telling our kids beer is for grownups? Municipalities all over the country used to put up spectacular holiday displays that were enjoyed by all, until a few people complained that they were offended. In our local town a Menorah (not sure if I spelled that right) was added in the 70's. This year we have no display at all, the towns reasoning is that a municipality can not continue to sponsor a display that is considered offensive to anyone. People ask things like what is wrong with our children today, I'm beginnging to think that we have created monsters who cannot accept any idea that is different from what they think . By making a few people happy we've ruined our country.

Like, if there's a stereotype about a group of people then won't it effect those people who look like them? Also have you personally faced anything like this? What are your thoughts on stereotypes?

I have both Japanese and Chinese colleageus in my work place. I have often noted that the chinese have very strong negetive feelings for the Japaense when they talk among themselves, however, they seem to treat my Japanese colleagues with great deference in social interactions. I would appear to me, and maybe I am wrong, that the Chinese view the Japs as somewhat superior at the same time they dislike them. The Japanese on the other hand do not very openly mention their attitude towards the Chinese, but, I did get hints from their conversation with such words as "The crime rate in Japan has incresed because of foreigners (Chinese)" or "OH! He is Chinese" with a shrug.
It is obvious that there is more beneath the surface. My question is,
1. If you are not chinese or Japanese, have you also observed similar things
2. What is going on here, and what is the cause?
3. If you are Chinese or Japanese your view point and corrections to my assumptions if you consider then wrong?

Saving the planet... if Christians, Muslims etc (well lots of religious groups) believe that 'God' (Allah or whomever) made this planet, us and all the creatures and plants that habit it... why don't they all try saving it for God and themselves... like stopping travelling in planes & cars etc.... stop burning fossil fuels... etc etc... This way they could save God creation and thereby be eligible for a place in heaven... leaving the rest of us to actually enjoy air travel, car travel etc?

I have read and heard of some people who have learned how to speak as many as 3-18 or more different languages. I think that those people are genuises, and I think that only people of that type who have learned how to speak, read, and write many different languages are the ones who can answer my question, but I welcome answers and opinions from everyone who is willing to respond to my question.
