Although hopefully an overstated generalization, this cartoon map sums up many of the flawed and uneducated perspectives of (at least some) Americans. Put together, they do not create a very attractive picture of our country of our people, do they? If you are American, please do your part, especially when dealing with those from other cultures, not to act like a jackass. It reflects poorly on the rest of us.
So sad… but true. Having spent early half of my life in the old continent and now living in US, the picture absolutely describes the attitudes I encounter. I am convinced US public school system is to blame for such uneducated thinking.
Thanks Apollo – I think the viewsare driven by school, parents and by the fact the the vast majority of Americans never leave the country so must rely on the attitudes fed them by the media and their surroundings.
