[Mark17]

I was just there 3 months ago, and I never had any problems at all. I think much of this so called anti Americanism is a media invention. I was treated like royalty. I was in Mindanao, supposedly the most dangerous place on earth. Another media invention. Detroit, Chicago, LA and New York are far more dangerous.

Anti-americanism as portrayed in the media is complete BS. They go looking for it. When I was in France, I didn't see a speck of anti-americanism which makes me wonder if all the talk of it wass trumped up crapola.
