92, Not all Americans are xenophobic or ignorant Posted by insanejake, Tue Oct-19-04 09:29 AM
obviously. The ones who are tend to be Bush voters. And they are always going to vote for someone like him.
I have travelled in the states, and had a great time generally. I found the people friendly and kind and reasonable. Until one broaches certain issues. All of a sudden these people turn into rabid nutters and start frothing at the mouth. The internet is a good place to discuss this stuff because people say things on here they wouldnt ever say in real life.
To be honest, I would never have brought up the ignorance, xenophobia, or any of that had I not been actively confronted with examples of it right here in this post.
Respect man.
