This is why everyone says american news media is shit, clearly you've never left your home town in the middle of nowhere and form your opinions on that basis. My advice? Don't believe all the crap you've read, experience the world for yourself and form your own opinions. I've been all over Europe and the US and I can tell you fact you are so so wrong. Unfortunately the problems you say we have don't exist and you have absolutely no evidence to support anything you just said. While your very real problems with children massacring each other in your school's with firearms goes entirely unnoticed. And you suggest I'm the one that can't see whats really going on. Americans wanted slavery long after we condemned and banned it. It seems like it will take you even longer to realise just how socially far behind us you really are.
