Why a large majority hates us, I know a lot of the answer but yeah.
What the world needs now...
They hate us because of the freedoms we enjoy.This was true fifty years ago. It isn't now.
Freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom from religion, freedom of assembly, freedom of movement, freedom to live any where you please, freedom to work, freedom to be a bum, freedom to own firearms, freedom to not own firearms, freedom to do just about anything you want as long as it does not harm someone else.
I honestly do not think the majority of the world understands how many freedoms we enjoy and how blessed each one of us is to be born an American.
And, we owe it all to our founders who recognized that freedoms had to be guaranteed in a document that was delibertly made VERY difficult to change so that it would not be subject to the petty whims of the moment as opposed to those petty polititians can simply muster a majority to fundamentally change the law of the land.
That document is The Constitution of The United States of America. Originally Posted by Jackie S

Do poor people "like' rich people?
If "a large majority" of the world population "hated us," when then "we" wouldn't have an "illegal immigration" problem and those who "accidentally" ended up in this country would be lining up to "go home" and get out of this "hateful place."
You have consumed and digested the bullshit from the past 6-7 years. Originally Posted by LexusLover
