Ah, good ol' mindless american nationalism...Originally Posted by rvg
On some level it's good to know that it's not just some europeans who are stuck in a 1930's mindset, the same attitude exists over the pond as well.

And THAT is really bad. That is beyond being offensive, and I will just take it before our American posters do. How dare you, you Norwegians are known for euganics,nuntill 19300 and you still think you can judge others. You killed children that didn't have Nordic features.
That's your country. The country that could just as well could have organised a parade should the nazi's invade them another time, so easy

Do you honestly believe I have warm feelings for my country, or take any pride in my nation whatsoever, Fragolini?

I just suspect some pride misgiven horrie. Scandinavians can really be jerks, and their confidence that they are holding the light is annoying.

Scandinavia/America/United States of Whatever.
Nationality aside, some of those cases are appalling in how they are handled.
Life imprisonment for a Vicar borrowing a car from a friend to visit his family on Christmas. Seriously?
Points on licence, fining, community service. No one is saying he shouldn't be punished for driving an vehicle he is uninsured for. But life sentence without parole?
If you really can sit there and justify that sentencing, you really need to take a hard look at your life.

Re: The Glorious American Justice system!
What's nationalism to some is just common sense to others. American justice is set up by us exclusively for us. We're not asking you to adopt our system, even though your treatment of Breivik is hair raising to many people here. Your country, your rules. Our country, our rules. Think what you will of this, it's not gonna matter to the way we do things here.
America isn't Europe. America isn't trying to be Europe or even be like Europe. Is that really so unsettling for the Europeans?

Mindless nationalisms trademark #2:
Whenever someone from "the outside" offers a point of view, he's trying to force you to change. There can be no other purpose to his despicable attacks of the One Truth(which is "we're the best and you suck").

Re: The Glorious American Justice system!
There's a difference between offering a point of view and repeating that point of view ad nauseum at every opportunity. You think America is backward and barbaric. Okay, got it. We've heard you and we don't care. Can we talk about something else now?

Re: The Glorious American Justice system!
I do not, but I can see how a nationalist like you would think so.

Didn't you just say...
You're a European, no? Or you're not one of those Europeans?...FYI Americans, this is why we Europeans consider you barbaric...

Mindless nationalism trademark #3: the tendency to take everything literally, especially when it's negative statements about ones country.
