Americans are stupid.

[D3V]

Jesus Christ, the average American really does give a shitty reputation to our country, maybe we really are that bad off.

I guess when we're run by this president ... the majority is pretty much screwed.

Correct D3V, Americans are stupid, especially the children, they are all dumb. I mean an honors class and a kid struggled on the word "uniform".

[Wallow]

Yeah, Bush and his famous "no child left behind act," A for effort... WRONG!
Americans are so fucking stupid that they can't even tell the difference between a continent and a country.

[Coffeedagger]

yeah a girl on my bus when asked to name all the continents struggled alot. This happened twice and the first time she said Canada was a continent. The second time she thought China was a continent when she didn't say it the previous week even after that previous week we told her the correct answer.

[Wallow]

How old was she? Freshman, Junior...

[Coffeedagger]

lol shes my neighbor. Also we asked he what separates the outer and inner planets. One kid was giving out a fake answer because he knew she'd say it. He said "Oh! Oh! It's Orion's Belt!" and she answered that and everyone cracked up laughing.

[Wallow]

lol, you didn't mention her age :D

[Coffeedagger]

She's in our grade, 15. It's sad because we were taught those things, especially the continents thing extensively.

It got rid of the fact that you needed to try to get through school. All you need to do now is get straight E's and go to summer school. This gets you a diploma why?

[Atnas]

This thread reeks of high school kids talking to each other like they're in a chat room.

[Wallow]

Ahh it doesn't matter. It's just a forum, mind you.

[Coffeedagger]

No he's right, but still my comments have been relevent to the discussion, most of my experiences are school related so it is all i have.

[HandOfHeaven]

Don't justify it. Your friend is dumb, and that synopsis proves that Americans are stupid.

I enjoyed the videos, D3V.

[D3V]

I did too, there's a ton more i'm debating posting them or not because it just brings down our image. Time to go find some British videos

[Lenny]

Haha. If the people are stupid, then it's probably because they're:

- from Yorkshire
- from Liverpool
- from Merseyside
- from the South
- from the Midlands
- from the North East
- from Wales
- from Ireland
- from Scotland

I think that about covers it. :rolleyes:

[D3V]

I'm pretty sure America broke off from Britian.

[Lenny]

The first settlers were definitely European - I'm not entirely sure that they were all British. And then in the 1770s (was it?) America fought its way out of English rule with the War of Independence.

With my list, I was getting my excuses of silly Brits in before the videos. Pre-empting them, as it were. :p

[D3V]

:) all in good fun.

[Dar_Win]

You honestly think in the first video that they didn't just cut out the clips of the other people who knew the answers to those questions. I could go over there and do the same exact thing and just show the complete morons who don't know anything. :rolleyes:

[D3V]

No, I think for the most part it is legitimate. But the questions people were getting wrong are so simple. Also, go watch "Are you smarter than a 5th grader" or any of those game shows that ask simple questions and even I get caught up on some of the simple, stupid little tidbit facts that are taught from a young age.

I would still say that Americans as a whole are stupid. When somebody speaks a different language around the common American, they get offended. When you question the military and government, you are unpatriotic. When you argue that anybody should get married you aren't abiding by the constitution. America was based on the freedom of speech, and the right to have any religion you'd like. We are now so caught up in bullshit that is irrelevant that our country's standards have dropped significantly and it's perfect timing, right now, for some change.

And we're in debt...Half of it coming from the two Bush administrations.

Treasonous is as treasonous does.
