I can't believe someone would post some crap here about being "ashamed to be an American." This mentality is one of the most upsetting things someone can hear from a fellow countryman/woman. Sure, you don't have to like/agree with everything the U.S. does, but that doesn't mean you should go ahead and declare it the Great Satan. People like this should try living in a country without the luxuries, freedoms, and amenities we have here in the U.S. I guarantee they'd change their tune quickly. I find it disgraceful they should choose the Pearl Harbor thread to vent their anger. This day is about remembering and honoring our fallen family members, not disgracing them by saying that you hate the country they gave their lives for.
