I can understand why there are so many negative opinions about the US government, but it sucks to be filed under one label when I don't necessarily agree with the way our own government does things. And it's no different than the way some people label everybody who follow a religion as "overzealous uptight do-gooders", and of course, those who label all porn peddlers as potential child molesters. I cannot stand stereotyping. Of course I've found myself guilty of it at times, and I really disgust myself when I realize I've done it.
