Dear racist American,

Allow me to retort!

firstly.. your nation.. is named after an Italian explorer.. called Amerigo Vespucci.. you might want to look that up.. Secondly.. nearly everything America sells .. like Starbucks coffee and KFC was originally borrowed from European culture.. in fact.. apart from hot dogs and deep fried coca cola.. I don't really know what is traditionally American.. YES.. America has given the world heavily overpriced goods for 50 years, poisonous products.. and foods which have made half the planet sick!!

YES.. I think Europeans have EVERY RIGHT to turn their noses up thank you very much!

And lets not forget.. they're not the desperados who went and invaded a sovereign nation when the penny dropped..

America has massive crime problem, no health system, few social welfare benefits.. and I just read the highest prison population on record.. 1 in 32 Americans now in prison or probabtion.. unbelievable!!

Then there is the small question of your $7TRILLION debt to the rest of the world.. money borrowed and yet ot be repaid.. and honestly.. keep your aid.. all America sends ot poor countries is experimental bio-genetic foods.. and otherwise all aid is military aid to Israel..



YEP.. America.. sure is leading the way..

This is ridiculous! Everywhere I turn on here,there's some idiot saying how much they hate so and so country,and hurling insults back and forth. It's beyond juvenile!!
Here's some facts for you-and I'm sure they will amaze and astound you!!!
I grew up in American. I live in England. I am Austrian on my mother's side,and have visited many other countries in Europe. This means that I have spent A LOT of time in America,England,and Europe-and in all those years,I learned something amazing!!!! PEOPLE ARE PEOPLE!!! Really!! No country has the monopoly on the smartest,nicest,or most down to earth people-you find them everywhere!!
As you say,you've never been to Europe-so why don't you experience different lives and cultures before making generalisations?

Hahaha... They believed that they're the best community on earth with a lot of achievements & discoveries... But, if they didn't received those knowledges during Dark Age from Abbasid Empire in Spain, they'll not achieved those... There'll be no Reinassance in Europe... That's a fact.

But, nowadays, Japanese is a very good community in the world for almost every corner of life... Neither Europeans or Americans

some British and European people are snobs but not all.
it is the same in every country you can not tell me that every one in England is snobby the Brits through history have been classed as snobs but that comes from the only ones that could afford to travel were snobs the same in every country.
I'm Irish which is part of Europe it is a country that is renowned for its friendliness and culture but believe it or not we have a small number of snobs here too.
in Ireland when bill Clinton was here meeting our tashoic {prime minister} the got thirsty in the limo our tashoic told the driver to pull over at a pub in drumconrath in Dublin
the got out went in
the secret service went mad at the unscedule stop and tried to stop Bertie ahern ordering two pints of beer for them because it was insecure. the tashoic went ahead anyway leaving a red faced bill having to swallow his snobbish pride and that of his agents and join Bertie in having a drink.
was bill snobby or what
by the way are all Americans dumb? lot of people think so? just thought id ask

Who is the one coming off snobbish here? I am an American and I have no problem with British or European people. I have traveled in Europe and I have found that most people treat other people well no matter where you are. Where as you don't need to use words that are considered snobbish to be a snob. It just takes a holier than thou art attitude, which you seem to be developing quite well.

Why not at least visit places before judging them? Many Europeans think that Americans are idiots, mostly because of the rich idiots who go over there to visit. This may indeed be more true for people who live in certain parts of the US. However, it seems like the ones who visit the central region of the US come away with a totally different opinion of the country.

This semi-illiterate post tells us nothing about Europe, it does however say a lot about you.

I am British and I am not a snob. None of my family and friends are snobs. 90% of the people in my city are not snobs. Unless you have actually visited cities in Europe and have seen this with your own eyes, I think you should keep your ignorant comments to yourself and stop stereotyping. You wouldn't like it if I said all Americans are obese now would you?

I am afraid you said it culture has gone to our head, unlike the American people who benefit from such a wealth of history, that this would be impossible. Better culture to your head than your neighbours Berretta.

How can you make that judgment when you have never even been to Europe? I have been to London. Paris, Stockholm, Helsinki, Copenhagen, Berlin and St. Petersburg. Never once did I have a problem with rudeness or snobbishness. However, when I returned to the good old USA, I was treated very rudely in airports, shops and restaurants. No one can beat Americans for being downright nasty.
