I think it's pretty messed up!

I agree with most of you as far as the damage we've done historically and globally.But don't you think that "Death to America" is a tad bit harsh?

Answer 1

Usually, people who chant "Death to America" are brainwashed fanatics. And unfortunately, the people running our government and our corporations aren't helping to change their minds, either.

Answer 2

I think there are people who have been led to believe all of their problems are because the USA is sticking our nose in their business. What they fail to tell their citizens is that our aid pays for their propaganda campaigns. I don't find it rude, as I believe in the first ammendment, but I do find the person who says it to be very politically uneducated and a smartass.

Without the USA most of these countries couldn't afford to pay their own electric bill, let alone challenge the most democratic country in the free world.

Answer 3

I think we've brought it on ourselves. America tries to butt itself into places it doesn't belong. We are trying to change cultures that have been going on since the cradle of civilization to our democracy that's been in place for a little more than 200 years. We think our way is best and it's really not. Look at society. Most of America is overweight, divorced, in financial trouble... we have no business trying to tell other countries what to do when we are in pretty deep ourselves.

Answer 4

they fairly recommend 2 diffeent issues. Anti-American is being adversarial to what u.s. is and stands for. Un-American calls for that the guy in question quite be an American, yet no longer stay as a lot because the criteria of patriotic mindset as determined by ability of the single doing the judging.

Answer 5

Are you referring to a specific type?

Generally I think our leaders, regardless of party affiliation, have done a great deal of harm to our national reputation. And some of our non-political citizenry haven't done us any favors either. I find it depressing. It will take new 'scholarly' leadership and a change of overall national attitude, and many years, to repair our image in the world. Right or wrong, that's just my small view.

Answer 6

This person has a little sense.
I'm American and completely unpatriotic, even embarrased to have the name.
To me, America is a spoiled brat! Scroo the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Most of all on our dollar bill you see "in God we trust". So we slaughter thousands and we use that logo, in God's name. Can you believe it?
"Thou Shalt Not Take the Name of the Lord God in Vain!"

Answer 7

That person, if American, is a stupid unpatriotic Idiot. If he is an Anti- Muslim (Terrorist) then he should do whatever. They know nothing but violence and blowing kids and women of their own religion up. I wish I knew him personally. I think an attitude adjustment is needed.

Answer 8

Sadly I think we earned it. Look back through history and any time the US got involved and overthrough any other gov't (or tried) it failed badly. (Central America, Cuba, Phillipines, Iran, Iraq)

Answer 9

Please ask George Bush him self why this type of anti-American sentiment appear but remember first Afghanistan ,Iraq, Palestine, Iran, Somalia and North Korea

Answer 10

Yes it is messed up,they are lots of stupid people living in this world.

Answer 11

That person's entire profile is messed up.
