No freedom here in Cali.
Just taxes, fees, and restrictions.
Just moved to south Minneapolis up from central Texas. Got a job. The $25 tickets on First Ave are fucking awesome - planning to see the Dr. Dog and PHOX show in February. Way better than driving an hour and a half through Austin traffic to see a show for twice that much.
I'm also getting used to the cold but fuck me when it's gonna be 10 below.
Montana represent. No-one gives a fuck about us and we don't give a fuck about you!

That's goddamn right get lost and get eaten by a bear or mugged by methheads you bastard.
Love my state.
Out of curiosity do people in America truly believe they're number one? I mean in many regards you probably are, but in a hell of a lot you're not, and I feel like such a mentality prevents you from becoming better.
The same applies on a personal level too, of course.
If you think you're perfect and without flaws you stagnate as a person and never become a better human being as a result.

For the most part, we largely don't even think about it. When something comes up that stirs our patriotism we, like most everyone else in other countries, get swept up in it and get the whole "We're #1" thing going. Other than that? We have our problems, the same as every other country does. We know it, you know it, everyone else knows it. No place is best, some places are just not the best better.

Most people in the US think we've won every single war we've fought.
And we've only fought the Revolution, the Civil War, WWII and Vietnam. Everyone a single victory :v:
Figured as much. Just good to actually hear it instead of the blind patriotism that is normally heard.
Good to know!

And the War of 1812 where those damn canucks burnt the friggin' white house down
But yeah I don't really hear anyone praising America too much outside of the TV, everyone usually complains about how shit our government is.

The only thing that happened in the War of 1812 was General President Jackson kicked the English ass and we won completely.
I live in Texas, the best country in the US

Not much freedom in Crook County. Gotta rep Chicago accordingly

The only example I can think of of California having more freedom than the rest of the Great States is the ability to lane split on a motorcycle. Illegal in 49 states. That's about it though.
Canada is better than the USA.

And everybody hates it when they do lane split.

Can't forget the Korean War and a little bit of World War I. I think most Americans just assume the country will rise to the occasion if an actual crisis were to occur, so the rest of the world's events either end up in the tabloids or fade into the background noise. Most of the people I know only hear about the Ukrainian crisis because I tell them about it, for example.
I'm a native of the Greater St. Louis area, by the way. Humid summers, snowy winters.
