Considering the basis of your other posts this one does not surprise me. When you actually grow up and "get" how things in life are you will appreciate this country and what it stands for. Lest you forget all the people who have died through the decades to give YOU the freedom to sit here and say this country sucks ass. You have a lot to learn.

I hate it when americans are always raggin on their country. They wouldn't last a day in some place like Cambodia. Seriously, after reading Notes From My Travels by Angelina Jolie, i'm thankful to be living in the US.

There is no other country in the world that I would rather live in but I see America's faults and am able to criticize it.

thank you. I feel the same way, except I could imagine myself living abroad for a few years. not because of this countries policies or anything government related, but to go back to my home country and learn more about my roots.

I also hated America when I was younger, I'll be 18 in October. Guess what? I still hate America.

This is not a free country.

No, I think it was more along the lines of "that's an awful comparison"

well its not. i hate america. people are bitching at me because of all the soldiers who have died for our freedom. if i'd said i hated the beatles and someone bitched me because they were the most successful band ever, then i dont see the difference. one is more serious than the other but the criticism is equal. and from what ive seen nannyperson post in this thread it seems like she IS saying i cant hate america.

There's a big difference between people dying for our country and music!

Anyways, in what ways is our country not letting YOU express yourself?

Thats why i said one is more serious than the other but the critisism is equal.

And i think its stupid how we can say absolutely whatever we want without getting in trouble with the government but its illegal to say that you want the president to die. its because in case youre planning on killing him but thats just being too strict, unless you actually THREATEN to kill him then its stupid to get in trouble for saying it. plus if someone says tehy want the president to die its THEIR opinion. people always talk about how they want celebrities to die and its their opinion just as much as it is with the president.
