Maybe this is why we have almost no support from foreign militaries when we fight our wars, because we are a bunch of douche bags.
It must suck for you to live in a country you hate.

Isn't he allowed to complain about anything he feels could be better about this country? I hear you bitching all the time.
I bitch about changing it. He bitches about keeping it the same. He wants the US to be Europe. He admittedly dislikes the people in the military, and if he could live in France over the US, he would (his words).

He does not like what the US stands, and has stood, for.

I'd disagree that the first two sentences are as accurate as you think they are. More than that, the US is all about change. Fossilization is the worst thing that could probably happen to it.

When did he say he dislikes military people in general?

Source plz on living in France, and if it's true I have a question for Akuma: What the hell is stopping you from leaving the country? If you can't be bothered to learn French, there's always Canada (not Quebec), England, Australia ...

Start reading on page three between Akuma and I, and you will see how he feels about military personnel.

Why would you live in France?

Scandinavian countries are where its at. Or Canada. Or New Zealand.

France has huge problems with racism, illegal immigration and having a twat as a leader.

Because it's the thing to do when you hate the US I guess. No clue really, have to ask him. :p

lol is all I can say. If it was a serious newscast, not Fox maybe I'd be upset. They're just a bunch of stupid americans who think they're the best country ever.

Theres more to a nation than a big army. Hey America, how's the economy down there?

Man, you're like barely even your own country, so stuff the superiority.

[edit:  I'm willing to admit that's a pretty outrageous exaggeration, but to be fair it's not any crazier than what I was (over)reacting to IMO.] 
Dude, I was insulting Fox news, not all Americans. And yes I shouldn't make fun of the economy, lots of good people have lost their jobs.

But come on, barely our own country? I'm pretty certain we were settled around the same time as America, and we've been allies with America for like 200 years so come on chill out man.

I was alluding to the extremely close economic ties, and cultural ties aside from you still being attached to the Commonwealth (you are right?) and of course Quebec.  If it wasn't for the border crossing and metric speed limits you'd never know the difference, amirite?

I agree I needed to chill out but I already did so by the edit.

Start reading on page three between Akuma and I, and you will see how he feels about military personnel.

"Do you know many people in the military?  A lot of them joined for money, for college, because they want to shoot people (yes, I have heard a few people actually say this...which is just sad), and for lack of anything better to do.

"I am not going to badmouth the troops, as I know a lot of good people who are in the military or have been in the military, but you are overestimating how noble many people's decision to enlist is, or how voluntary that choice is in some cases."

He isn't shy about talking about bad things they do, and bad people in uniform, but you're pretending he thinks all of them are bad people doing bad things which is blatantly untrue.  When he told the story about the soldier that accidentally shot up a completely innocent festival, he didn't act like that guy was an evil murderer, he just acted like he was a guy that made a terrible mistake and accidentally did something horrible. 

You are letting your opinion of akuma twist your perceptions until you don't even know what you're looking at anymore.

Fox News is intellectual masturbation for ethnocentric conservatives... Such people need Sean Hannity etc. to tell them how to think everyday.

No, that thread is one of the things that shaped my opinion of Akuma. I asked him to tell me one thing he liked about the people in the military, and he couldn't.

You are letting your opinion of Akuma shape how you respond to his actions. His tone and words in that thread are inexcusable.

Well, I guess it's true, he'd rather be French.  I guess that's enough to doubt his patriotism, but you have to look elsewhere for America-hatred.  I'm sure you can find some
