you shouldnt hate a huge group of people because of one person....either of you...i am an american but I have friends in several countries: canada, austraillia(sp?) (sorry I suck at spelling), uk, italy, germany, and a few other countries (but I cant think of them right now b/c I know so many people). for example I wouldnt hate my friends from britian just because of our early american history--i value my friends for who they are and what they mean to me and how we treat eachother. our canadaian friends came to visit us--we havent seen them sice I was born (about 17 years)--and I imediately(sp?) befreinded them just had my family...from my inpression on them canadians are extreemly kind people who we can learn alot from and teach alot to--but its like that with all cultures, nobody knows what every culture is like.....take me for example, ive got so much blood mixed that I guess id be classified as "heinz 57": im mainly italian (from my dads side) but my mom briought in the mix: german, irish, british, anglo-saxon, american idnian (crow), scotish, and a bunch of other things that I dont even know of! if you look at the big picture and you draw your roots back as far as you can you may find that you are immigrants from a different land--we are all immigrants from some time or another--and then you will wonder what its like to live/be like the people from where you originate(sp?) the only way you learn about the culture is to accually go to the country or talk with people from there and get a grasp of friendship through dissuussion and relations.

have a nice day =)
