American bashing?

[Balaur]

So I've been noticing lately, that a lot of people are just bashing and generalizing Americans because they only run into the bad ones. Is it normal for people in other countries to generalize? I'm not trying to be rude, but all I hear is that we are self centered, rude and a lot of the time they blame people leaving DF on Americans...
I know a lot of Americans who go out of their way to help, only queing in DF as a tank and doing runs in progress, making free gear for people who need help, I being one of them... My question is why is it that people are generalizing us based on an encounter with someone who's more than likely 12? We don't choose where we are born.

Thanks Obama. Tomestones of Mythology? More like Tomestones of Obamacare! Amiright? (Seriously, no joke, this is just stupid.)
