‘America is HUGE. I’ve heard of people visiting the US and thinking they could see the Golden Gate Bridge in a day when staying in Ohio. That’s a 2 day drive.
‘Also, America has every type of environment. We have temperate climates, deep forests, mountains, beaches, volcanos, deserts, swamps, bluffs, grass plains, lake towns and even jungles and rainforests in Puerto Rico. If you want to experience something most likely America has it. And that was just in the USA.’

‘No, in the south, we do not all have alligators in our back yards.

‘A lot of people here are actually pretty nice, financially struggling and just trying to get by, and strongly object to the government’s cruelty. There are some brainwashed extremists, of course, like I’m sure every country has. But overall, yeah, we’re just humans who would love world peace just like anyone else with the ability to rationalize with compassion.’

‘I don’t want to be car dependent. I have to be. If I could bike everywhere in a REASONABLE amount of time, I probably would.
‘But biking to my work takes an hour because our cities sprawl so much and our bike paths are not good and car traffic usually is higher on priority lists than bikes so our bike lanes are usually non existant or minimal. And I live in one of the best cities/areas to bike in, according to some lists online.’

‘We’re just people getting by. We know our country has problems, I’m sure yours does as well. Generalizing an entire nation based on stereotypes is stupid.’

‘A lot of you guys give the US shit for being racist, but when push comes to shove, a lot of you guys have to look at a mirror.
Not saying we’re perfect, but holy shit.’

‘Our state governments hold more power over our daily lives than the federal government. The laws can vary pretty significantly across state lines aside from commonalities like no murder, robbery, reckless driving, etc., and even those sometimes can be punished very differently from state to state. It’s almost like 50 similar-minded neighboring nations (and a couple territories) under 1 union.’
