For one thing, they have a better medical system and do not palpitate when the price of oil goes up a penny.

Hear, hear!

Just me...I do not know a single french person to hate (I had a french national French teacher....(but, she was really cool)

I don't know anyone who hates anyone from somewhere else....we tend to hate people who actually did us wrong...at least that is how we do it out here among the "Mongrels".

well, it's all a matter of perspective. something bad is going to happen out of it. something bad for america.

Looks like the op got smart and ducked out.

i dont hate france.

well, i can say i like france now, they have started a whole anti-zionist political party.

So what?...we started as colonial slave owners.


Anti-Zionist?...they weren't working people to death in cane fields.

Pretty sure that Zionist...Anti-Zionist was the least of thier worries.

don't think so, it doesn't pay to type an opinion without researching it. they had plenty to worry about with the zionists before they called themselves zionists. the people who helped start the zionist group owned almost all of the slave ships that brought them into our country. there is a museum in, i think it's boston massachussets that lists the names. take it for what you want, or leave it, i don't care, someone will research it after reading this thread.

So...does what you are alluding to referr to people from 200+ years ago?.....


or are you referering to modern day slave owners....

cause if this arguement is rhetorical....put on your cup amd mouth guard skippy.

i'm alluding to both 200 years ago and now. same organization, just different players.

Great...I can deal with this....


How should we punish the slave owners from 200 years ago?.....I say "make em pay!!!!"

But...do we punish thier great grandchildren who have never even thought of owning a slave?


Or do we deal with modern slavers?...Exactly where should I look to stop this from happening?...A specific address will help.

This is not true anyway.

Holy crap!

And this thread is still here???


Perhaps the Statue of Liberty could be trucked back where it came from?

Un-f*cking-believable!

I like their fries

I agree and the old feud or whatever it is should be over by now.

Americans are arrogant. It does set alot of other people off. We here in this country have yet to learn humility.

Yah know, Dragoness....I am the first to spout off about injustice, and imbalance and lack of tolerance...in an unrefined way...

this thread is just downright bloody toxic!




As to the slavers.... there is not ONE single country that was settled by European colonists that have not decimated ALL cultures around them...including my little island down here..


but this is just absolute bullsh*te!

Pointing fingers is only one finger pointed at the other, and three back at oneself..

I dig France. I got to ride the metro for free when I was in Paris (some kind of strike or something). And where would all of the eccentric celebrities who are sick of fame go? Bic lighters and razors. GREY GOOSE VODKA!!! CANNES FILM FESTIVAL!!! I could go on...

What is bitterly ironic....

I am one of the most open, loving and accepting people you could meet....

accept for intolerance...(yes, I do see the irony of this next statement)

I would really like to kick the hell out of the intolerant ones until they would come around and just be nice to everyone. If they refuse....then they probably deserve a viscious beating.

I wonder why it is...that the people I meet in real life...no matter thier nationality or thier citizenship...always apprecieate my friendship and help....?


Yet, the people who will not stand in front of me are the ones to talk sh*t.

I have nothing against France.

The whole "hate France" thing seemed to come about by the conservatives over Bush's War in Iraq and France not wanting to join in the idiocy of his policies.

France gave us the Statue of Liberty... an American icon.

Oh and the President of France's wife is HOT.

Over time both countries have supported each other.
Why hate?
