You might be a TRUE AMERICAN if: It never occurred to you to be offended by the phrase, "One nation, under God."

You might be a TRUE AMERICAN if: You've never protested about seeing the 10 Commandments posted in public places.

You might be a TRUE AMERICAN if: You still say "Christmas" instead of "Winter Festival."

You might be a TRUE AMERICAN if: You bow your head when someone prays.

You might be a TRUE AMERICAN if: You stand and place your hand over your heart when they play the National Anthem.

You might be a TRUE AMERICAN if: You treat Viet Nam vets with great respect, and always have.

You might be a TRUE AMERICAN if: You've never burned an American flag.

You might be a TRUE AMERICAN if: You know what you believe and you aren't afraid to say so, no matter who is listening.

You might be a TRUE AMERICAN if: You respect your elders and expect your kids to do the same.

You might be a TRUE AMERICAN if: You'd give your last dollar to a friend.

Actually I don't think I've heard a European in Minnesota say anything nice about any other population besides European.

Actually I don't think I've heard a European in Minnesota say anything nice about any other population besides European.
And how many European in Minnesota you has met???? [Big Grin]
My college is 20% international students. Which out of 14,000 students 20% of those are international. Vast majority of those international students are either Japanese or European. Mostly European, so out of international students I have had class with about 400 European students. 130 college credits racked already means more than enough opportunity to meet Europeans.

I worked in the financial/investment industry for 2.5 years. About 75 employees out of 700-1000 employees per company were European. We needed them especially as investment analysts and stockbrokers. So again, plenty of opportunity.

Then there's the neighborhood I live in, loads of foreigners mainly European since the landlord rarely rent to non-whites.

Plenty, plenty opportunity. And in Minnesota were are very open, talkative and will chat with strangers freely. Naturally to a European this gives them plenty of opportunity to shoot off their mouths thinking since we are mostly liberals we don't have a backbone or dignity as citizens. No we are just too polite to contradict their arrogance and anti-Amercanism. Except for a few like myself. I am not polite, or nice and I will verbally assualt them for their anti-Americanism and tell them to go back home.

Some might a few years later and many dirty nasty glances passing by me in the street, strike up a conversation and apologize. Only to tell me they are apply for citizenship.

Why can't an European appreciate America unless they are trying to become one of us?

And he is an American traveling in America.

I wish I could photograph some of the tourists from overseas we get here.

But there is a city ordinance against it. Plus approaching them for an interview. [Roll Eyes]

Very attractive group. Obviously knows how to hold a wine glass.

But please photographers in the future don't include a young woman's bare lap in the future.

At least she held her legs together. They haven't had to much yet!

Believe me sweetheart, these pics are as innocent as they come.

All are well dressed, well behaved, and attractive, intellegent looking people!

You won't see individuals like this being described as Americans!

These are a huge improvement, thank you for posting them.

The guy above is a not-so perfect example of an RV traveler.

Most of the time RV travelers in the USA are silver haired, impecable, cold, hostile, underfed (by choice) 60's, 70's, and 80's year olds that are carrying huge handguns in every compartment!

Plus they claim they are on the road to avoid those horrible "grandkids".

They spend $3.79 per gallon on gas, park their RVs in the street when at home!

Then they try to use loopholes in the tax code laws to get out of paying property taxes!

RV people are a huge stain on America society. So many jokes, so little time!

Now I wouldn't say this normally but go look on www.virtualtourist.com

This site has member's pics. Often times if you look for 'mature gentlemen' profiles from Europe you will see a very bad reminder of why men should understand that MATURE doesn't mean behaving like a 25 year old composer!

People complain about Eurotrash young people, no its the older "gentlemen" who are out of touch with reality and their age!

The young people in Europe don't really give a damn what people think of them. The older women are proud of who they are, and what their society has accomplished and thats great. But the older 'unattached' or not so unattached men are the real studies in human psychology!

A mid life crisis in men is what keeps out economy going here in the USA for luxury items. But the mid life crisis in men of Europe is what keeps young ladies of Minneapolis atuned with European language insults!
