This really seems to be the common way people do things here much of the time huh.
Are you drunk right now??
Admiral, perhaps you don't understand the key concept behind the history of the social attitude of
America. The key is in the classic western story. That's right, being a rebel. Shunning the big man, shunning the institutions, the cities, getting your own peace of land and peace of mind. This is the classic attitude from which this country is founded. As you know, cities crept east to west and people who still held onto the true american value crept to the west to avoid the cities as time went by. Eventually, america became what we were trying to escape from, Europe, with federal laws and such.
So yes, at the heart of American attitudes, people who uphold that want to be a rebel, defend their property with a six shooter, say YEE HAW, whatever. Basically, the attitude remains, interestingly enough, in our hip hop culture. It's the new west, where the ball is in the peoples court, economic prosperity, drugs, syndicates, freewill, doing just about anything without government intervention.
Of course, that's what Hip Hop started out saying, before it became owned by record companies who completely conflict with that sense of non-conformity.
But the illusion is still there.
Just understand, some people don't like your civilized, nationalistic attitudes, because they are just different.
