An easy way to tabulate the answer would be to go thru any thread with the words "gun", "George Bush", "terrrorism" or "US election" in them. The screaming, whining answers are "furrins" and the "kill 'em all and let God sort it out" are the Yanks. Extra credit goes to those who detest America, but seem to want a H-1 visa and those who claim they love America, just can stand President (insert name here) OR to those who don't have a clue as to what a "septic" is, use Euro Trash and are not referring to dustman or claim Con_pilot is Lord Almighty.

modrocker, you have seen the stats.

My personal opinion is; we could do with some more of you guys.

You want the stats? You can't handle the stats!

Go to the "Airplane on a Conveyor Belt" thread.
Count all the posts with the word "tyre" in them vs. the ones with "tire". The latter are Yanks.

Can't tell you.

TSA rules. Last time I admitted it, they emailed me with instructions for self-waterboarding in the toilet (loo?) Budget cuts prohibit personal visits these days.

Say it ain't so, Joe!

Banned, were you? Well, pardner, that there is why we fought and won a Revolutionary War, I reckon!

What is it coming to when stuff you can express with a bumper sticker gets you banned from Jet Blast? It's them Reds again...

I spent so long swilling around in a wading pool full of alcohol with those Limeys that I think some of whatever it is they have must have soaked in but I am still an American. Not much of a one but there you are. I think you have to live in some jurisdiction where they actually expect you to be armed to meet the Jet Blast standard for Septicity and here I am just in "Old Europe".

Why the question, anyway? This isn't a trick is it, some way to sell more Personal Titles, with a price differential for dollars versus pounds?

Hey Joe,
statements like the quote you posted are enough to get you banned.

Civis: Exactly what I was trying to do, properly note his standing amongst the Yanks!! Now calling him the "the Draper of OKC" wouldn't be nice.
