Glad to live here, too!
This is about the only country left that not only stands up to bullies but also is willing to admit(sometimes TOO willing) its shortcomings.
Gotta go rehearsals!

Just want to wish my American neighbours a Happy 4th of July.
Stay safe, enjoy some fireworks and have a great holiday!

[Andros-thaurissan (Andros)]

Happy Independence Day!

This eaglet is about to earn pathfinder. Will he fly on the fourth of July?

[Rechab-hyjal (Rechab)]

There isn’t a government in this world that isn’t corrupt.

[Kegstand-cenarion-circle (Kegstand)]

Cripes that was pretty good.

[Spinster-farstriders (Spinster)]

I am all for a celebration of overthrowing dictatorships.

Dear America… Your governments are corrupt.

Which one of our governments are corrupt though

Teach me dad.

Happy 4th of July to all American WoW players!
America is the greatest country in the world and I am proud to live in the country which is a beacon of democracy and freedom!

To non-American players, hope you have a good day too!

I do find your name rather ironic considering your topic

'Merica!

Live here, or enjoy our Video Games and Movies! Japan also makes the best video games.

I love the USA, Sometimes I wish I was born there and go to Highschool there I couldve worn a cheerleader outfit the whole day and no one would look weird at me for doing so and during lunch break I can fully enjoy one of the glee clubs musical songs in the cafeteria or school yard.

Poster seems to think that the show “Glee” is representative of average American High School life?

[Tewa-hyjal (Tewa)]

A democracy is antagonistic to freedom. That’s why the USA is a republic instead.

I really hate when people mis-use the term “republic”.

A republic means a country without a monarch.

A republic does not mean freedom, nor does it mean elected people passing the laws.

Iran is a republic.
North Korea is a republic.
China is a republic.
France is a republic.
The USA is a republic.
The only thing these countries have in common is that they don’t have a monarch.

The United Kingdom, despite having a freely elected government, is NOT a republic. Nor is Canada.

Please stop mis-using the word “republic”.

This PSA brought to you by Tewa.

Why do you have to be a piece of crap like that though? and you don’t speak for the rest of the world you arrogant fool

Yes, of course. I expect this to be exactly like the average High School life in America all across the country. I would be enormously disappointed if it wasn’t.

You know, you don’t have to play WoW today if you want to spend time with friends/family. Reputations don’t degrade and WoW will be here tomorrow.

[Baing-norgannon (Baing)]

The USA is a republic, not a democracy. #Fact.

[Tewa-hyjal (Tewa)]

Democracy and Republic are not mutually exclusive. You should get your civics from something other than playing Civ.

California is a democracy AND a republic.
Saudi Arabia is neither.
Canada is a democracy but not a republic.
North Korea is a republic but not a democracy.

[Baing-norgannon (Baing)]

Republic != Democracy. Just another one trying to hijack vocabulary.

[Tewa-hyjal (Tewa)]

You aren’t reading.

Republic = no monarch
Democracy = decisions made, in part or whole, by the population

A country can be either, both, or neither, as examples above.

[Baing-norgannon (Baing)]

A country cannot be a republic and a pure democracy. Democratic processes, sure. But a republic is not, and will never be, a democracy.
