I try to think that this thread was not created for the purpose of putting down Americans, but for the purpose of showing them the truth. Yes, the vast majority of Americans may be very stupid and exceedingly proud, at times, but if they realize it and work to better themselves they will not remain such for long.
For the benefit of all mankind, put aside your egos and see the truth.
