Aside from the guns, most of that is not my America at all.

At least the guns are your America. How very comforting :P

Well, I didn't want to go into it, but unless I'm talking about inner city areas where they have more of a tendency to use them on each other, Indiana is a pretty farmy/hunty place. Lots of us grow up learning gun etiquette and that they aren't to be screwed with. It's like kids who are allowed to drink early, imo. It's less of an issue for them later (usually) because it was never a big deal in the first place.

american culture? - 06/10/2010 04:50:27 AM 772 Views
Some of that may be more European than American culture. - 06/10/2010 04:20:16 AM 744 Views
But circumcision is a hot topic in the US - 06/10/2010 05:42:25 AM 804 Views
It is? - 06/10/2010 06:51:31 AM 843 Views

That surprises me, but alright. - 06/10/2010 10:00:14 AM 776 Views
It is indeed only prevalent among Jews and Muslims - and the old British empire. - 06/10/2010 10:38:07 AM 842 Views
And, apparently, most of Africa. - 06/10/2010 11:46:32 AM 966 Views
I really don't think it is much of a hot topic here - 06/10/2010 09:37:50 PM 964 Views
You make a good point about tipping - 06/10/2010 09:58:10 AM 787 Views
I disagree - surely tipping is much more internationally widespread than some others in that list. - 06/10/2010 10:43:32 AM 740 Views
Re: I disagree - 06/10/2010 07:41:14 PM 874 Views

sounds a lot like the America I know *NM* - 05/10/2010 05:55:27 PM 345 Views
Is the first part of that statement even true? - 05/10/2010 04:45:36 PM 725 Views
Hm. Interesting. - 05/10/2010 05:43:19 PM 702 Views
