Maybe Anti-Americanism Is Due to Ignorance of What America's Actually Like

Kinda funny, kinda sad story about Green Day really wanting to burn an American flag, but deciding not to, as it's "illegal" and they don't want to face jail time.

Except, you know, it's not.

How have these people formed such an erroneous impression of this country? Perhaps if they spouted off a little less and read a little more they'd be more appreciative of the freeest country in the history of the world.

Then again, probably not.

Thanks to Alarming News, which you should visit, because there's a whole host of guest bloggers while Karol is away.

Except that she's still posting a lot. From Honduras and the like. She is committed.
