Continue, shall we?:rotfl:
Aboringines? Here, have some blankets..........

I've been to the USA, it's a nice place.

And What does England having slaves have anything to do with Australia? You said my country was started by prisoners, I said yours was made by slaves, it's pretty similar imo especially since most of the so called prisoner's only crime was stealing food, but yeah I guess they should have just hung them.

I don't need to continue, i'm as patriotic as anyone is about their country. I love my home and will always see it above any other piece of dirt. I'm not about to call you a fool for doing the same to your home... That's what my intial post was sort of saying.

The fact is though (and thread topic), globally the USA has a bad reputation for delusions of self importance and arrogance. Do you want to give me a reason to begin thinking like that or something?
