I could think of a few more but I think you get my point. None of these images are true or helpful. Let's not turn this forum into a 'hate forum'.

My two cents.
I think that the Media makes a country's views one way or another.(This coin has 2 sides)

When I visited most of Europe, early 1980's , it seemed to me that America was viewed as a bunch of "Rough Ridin' Cowboys" and everyone has a pick up and a horse trough in the front yard.

odd...

I think at that time the TV show "Dallas" and a few spin offs were makin' the 'Prime Time' across most of Europe.

my my how times have changed

I agree with waste gate "PLEASE DO NOT TURN THIS FORUM INTO A "HATE FORUM"

There is enough to work with already and we need nomore.
