Yes maybe Jesus H Christ's comment was a bit provocative but he never said that America alone had committed atrocities, why can't we just accept that all countries have blood on their hands without getting overly defensive of the country to which we were born

Well i think you are ignoring the obvious then. If you don't think i'll respond to criticisim of America by pointing out the hypocrisy of it comming from a European, when Europe is the most violent continent on the planet, i'm sorry, but you arn't looking at things objectively.
How is it weird for me to respond to jibes about America by giving it back to Europe?? You don't understand that really??
What is confusing or unfair about that???
You think there should be a double standard?? Sorry, but i know history, and i'm not gonna let someone from Europe say that America is violent or imperialist, when Europe's history, especially Britains is FAR FAR worse. It's about acknowledging the truth. I'm not British, I'm American, and if you talk trash about America, i'm gonna educate you about the hypocrisy.
