The very first Communists were early Slavic tribes who owned so little they had to share everything. They were renowned warriors, whose battle tactics consisted of getting as drunk as mortally possible, then drink twice as much more and charge at the enemy wielding a hammer in one hand and a sickle in the other. Even in these early times they were called the Red Army for their red faces (esp. noses). A Communist Warrior was terrible to behold in battle, bashing, slicing, and breathing alcoholic fumes at his enemies. Mortally wounded, he would merely fall asleep at the field of battle, only to wake up the next morning with regenerated limbs, healed wounds and a severe headache.

This is one of all those things that I really can't understand about you americans. Don't you know what everyone are constantly thinking about USA here?! : USA, WHAT A ZOO!!!

At least, stop showing your movies all around the world so you'll not show how stupids your are. You would need to wake up and make a enormous change in your strange society that is far from being linked to what's important in life. Stop running away from your fears and your challenges.
First, if you are going to call someone stupid, at least use proper spelling and grammar.

Second, I guess they don't teach tolerance of others in your area? Is that a geographical issue or just yours?

Lastly, you have failed to do research and instead rely on "movies" - which are considered ENTERTAINMENT - to base your judgments on.

I have a friend from France who says that French Canadians aren't "really French". Now, would you like me to base my opinions of an entire province on one person's opinion? Or should I base the politeness of everyone in Quebec or Canada because when I visited Montreal, I found a lot of those in service positions (hotel, restaurants) to be rude to Americans and refuse to speak English?

No, to do so would be ignorant.

So get off your high horse and think before you type.

Have yuo ever seen Forrest Gump??? Remember the part where he says "Stupid is as Stupid does"? Im sure you do since your such a movie buff! lol

That's okay. We think you're really strange and not cool, too, and we laugh at you -- or at least in your general direction.

So not all Canadians have beady eyes and floppy heads and play hockey while riding a moose to school? Huh. That's what movies taught me and MOVIES ARE ALWAYS RIGHT!
