People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

The United States is no paragon of virtue. Many people are racist here. We have our own Neo-Nazis, Ku Klux Klan, right wing militias and other extremist organizations that hates Blacks, Mexicans, Gays and Jews.

Americans are difficult to deal with because we think that everything that we do is right and has been ordained by God. Rarely do Americans listen to foreign opinions. If we had, there would have never been a Vietnam. The French were in Indochina for decades, but we ignored their advice and experience. Americans think that they have a mission to civilize the world with Americanism.

Americans refuse to learn other languages or customs. We go to Berlin and expect the Germans to speak English. Yet, when they come here, we still expect them to speak English.

I was at my gym the other day and I overheard a group of guys reveling over all the death threats against Obama. Basically, they thought that he shouldn't be President because he's black. Unbelievably, they hoped that he would fail and blamed him for the depression that this country is in- even though he has yet to take the oath of office. Their heartthrob, George Bush, who has led us to financial disaster with a war that never ends, wasn't even mentioned.

People in my state are neither very friendly or kind. I can go down the street and never hear the word hello.On Long Island, a poor fellow was trampled to death by crazed shopers the day after Thankssgiving. If Americans get mad at you on the highway, they try to run you off the road and flash you the finger. In my hometown...which is in the northeast...not the south, I regularly hear words like Niggers, Spick and Faggots.

What's my point? There are bad guys everywhere. It's not just in Germany, but you can find them in America, Great Britain, China etc.

One last thing...someone said that they can't forget about German atrocities in the Second World War. I wonder if the American Indians will forgive us for exterminating most of them for their land and putting the remainder in reservations. Listen, if the Germans are responsible for what their grandfathers did, then we are responsible for what their great-great grandfathers did.
