I'm only guessing but I'd say you must be a citizen of the USA
There is a big world outside your shores and you should learn about it. If you did you'd know that we Europeans don't insult other countries as one single body of thought. Each European country (not state) has it's own favourite targets of ridicule. And to top it all off, we all ridicule eachother too. You just feel like the only victim in the world right now because you've so much to be ashamed of and everyone is telling you at once
Sorry bout that

Doorman is quite right, you cannot get upset at Europe as a whole. I think there were less than 30 answers originally that got you so steamed up. There are thousands of people on the boards so don't judge us all together.
As someone from Britain, we take the mickey out of the French, as someone from England we take the p out of the Welsh, as someone from a particular town we take the P out of northerners, Geordies etc.
I'm sure in America you have favourit targets too, and they'll vary from state to state. there will be people on here who generalise about all 'yanks' but you would no doubt argue that, that is incorrect.
Don't tar us all with the same brush!

Most people don't hang around with people that they claim insult or hate them. Intelligent people will keep away from a forum that winds them up so much.
Oh wait, you're from the US, right ?
Oh yeah, i remember now, you DO hang around places your not wanted.
Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam, Europe.....
Carry on, toodle pip old chum.
what's a "gose" ?
Lumping all of "Europe " in one argument like this says more about you than you will ever imagine. Do you actually have a passport ?

I wonder how you can be so general as to judge ALL Europeans as racist or judgemental of other races. Surely you're walking a hypocritical path. I don't insult others based on their nationality and surround myself with like minded people.

some racism comes from mom and dad some racism comes from the section you reside in some do it out of worry....that their own race could be taken over by making use of the others.... some are following the gang and don't additionally be responsive to why some are in basic terms indignant haters some are undeniable ole ignorant

Have you ever seen the Reporting Abuse page on this website? Your three questions all qualify in the 'insulting other participants' category so practise what you preach.
You've done America proud today!

This is normal "kids over the fence" syndrome
Na-na-na-na- nah !
you are over there, so you are not as good, as us over here.
It has happened since time began .
and it is not exclusively a European trait, it is world wide
Sadly, this intolerance of others, is often disguised as religion ;
or religion is used to belittle and insult others .
now-a-days it stems, from how we are teaching our children
ie. "that intolerance is cool."
this is so wrong and so dangerous,
it leads to hatred and ultimately , to wars between nations
and from these there can be no winners .
Look to your family , and teach them TOLERANCE.
then maybe peace can break out
and we will all live to see another day.

Have you ever ventured out of the US?
You sound about 12 with an IQ of a similair figure.
Come back with a valid argument once you have lived a little.
