Right there ... that's it. Misconceptions like that, packaged with a red neck attitude, is what gives Americans as a whole a bad name. I know every country has jerks like that, but there is a pretty strong perception by other nationalities that most Americans are like this. I certainly haven't found the majority of Americans to be like that, but there certainly are some and they're giving you all a bad name.
