I'm German and moved to Florida (I like hot weather), but what I saw in school shocked me. Americans learn vocabulary words; From English to English. How can a language be the perfect one if not even in High School the people can speak it? I can't remember having something like that ever in school in Germany.
I can understand why Americans need weapons. The police shoots first and ask questions later. (so its better to be the one who shoots first). They can't trust their own government so that they have to protect themself. Most crimals have a weapon so that everyone needs one to protect themself.
But thats all cool with me. I don't care if they need a weapon or not. Their is only one thing I really hate about Americans. (most of them) They think that their country is the best one. They only know Mexico and Canada and were never in Europe (except maybe in Paris or England). But thats what they learn as children. Everywhere they go someone tells them how good their life is. For example Bush says in every speech that they have a good life. In school everyday they have to stand up and sing a little song to their flag. They never have a chance to think on their own...
