That's a really nice story & she sounds like a lovely friend. It doesn't have anything to do with being American though lol. American people are just people at the end of the day, just like the British, just like the Aussies. Some of them are fantastic, lovely friends. Some of them are fucking assholes.
I've personally made peace with being an American living abroad. I dislike the things that are associated with my country, but it's also not my job to be an emissary of an entire nation with non homogeneous views, and explain it to other people. I've literally been asked WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT SCHOOL SHOOTINGS at the grocery store.
I told that person I fucking love school shootings & me & my friends have a secret high five we call the sandy hook.
Should white people pay reperations?
