For gods sake the European Forums at Guardian
Here they are... I was called a fake by a rabid nationalist named tomUSA on there...the Brits are giving it to him good (called him an uncompassionate sod)
I guess he thought all the military families think like he does..he was very angry when I called him out on it (hes not a military family)....
hey I have to get my anger out somewhere and besides, I dont want Europeans to think we all behave like tomUSA
here ya go if you want to counter some of the rabid arguments..its very embarassing to think USers go on those boards and make such asses out of themselves...

3. The "Yanks" on Guardian's forum make me hang my head in shame
Freepers have completely taken over the International section, and cheerfully confirm Brit's beliefs that we are all fucking insane.

4. Thats why I went on
I cant believe what some of the USers say...I decided it was time to blow some of them away. They refuse to believe my stepson is in Iraq because in their deluded minds all soldiers mothers are somehow pro bu$sh..what insidious morons they are.

5. WTF?
How did Freeper's manage to conquer one of the world's strongest bastions of progressivism.

6. God only knows...two years ago it was fine in that forum
I started participating in it after 9/11, since I was interested in a foreign viewpoint on US events. Then the "memo" must have gone out, and some very persistent right-wing disruptors have infested the whole thing. They tend to be able to spell and use a few polysyllabic words--more "khaki riot" types than your average Freeptard.
