"We here like to call them idiots."

Yup. Read my post closer. I don't like all the bashing going on and on and on, in many of the sites I go to. It gets old. I don't feel the level of anger you seem to, but it bothers me.

I know there are a lot of Canadians that feel the same way those french people felt.

I mean, no duh! You're preaching to the choir on that one.

I just wanted to point out that this kind of slamming isn't confined to one country. It's universal, and spans decades. I got nailed back in the '60's, and when I go to other boards, I'm still taking heat. There are several I don't even bother posting to anymore.

We do it, they do it, too.

If someone points out how common and universal this kind of slamming is, then maybe we can think it over and decide that we don't want to be like this.

As far as disliking someone, they have the right to their opinions. I seriously doubt the people of the French nation will lose any sleep if I happen to be unsupportive of their choices.

I'm just glad that the distinction was made between politics and the average citizen. We need to make that distinction.
