As a Brit with a touch anti-establishment in his bones, I also have to admire the whole concept of the States - a bunch of rebellious Brits stick to fingers firmly right up the Royal's arses, overthrow them and create a brand new republic (this then becomes the alleged 'super power' in the world). Okay, there's a heck of a lot to be disappointed with in the history of the US, but what marvellous Northern Hemisphere nation would be where it is today without trampling all over a culture here, a race there, an entire history there. I'm not condoning this of course, let's not forget that Hitler had similar notions, and we should all be ashamed of our history to a certain extent, but the original premise of rebellion, revolution and republic should be celebrated more.

Yeah, I see your point but do they have to be so loud about it?

it's hard to whisper a good rebel yell
And if you want to get offensive...
