I understood it, I know where you are coming from and I feel qualified to say that if anyone does not like this country and its' protocol, leave or make a difference by getting involved.
I choose not to get involved in a way other than casting my vote(for now).
The bottom line is shit or get off the pot. Bash the US and you might as well piss on all of our troops protecting our asses.
I will add that Ian was not bashing anyone, but simply reposting a "humorous" joke.
Is it his opiion? I can't say. But I have a good guess.
