Well, English tourists in Spain have a bad reputation, but from what I’ve heard, a rather large group of my fellow Germans do not behave any better.
I guess it’s more like acknowledging that English is the most important 2nd language around.

Or perhaps he incorporated new information into his worldview and had a change of heart?
It does happen sometimes! 
This thread will likely be closed by the time he’s had a chance to really process, but the removal of the posts is a good sign.

Anything is possible, even if not very probable.
Back-peddling, I’d wager.

I saw just enough of it to recognize one of the four letter words.
Great comment from the Washington Post: “Remember, there is a brain eating amoeba in Louisiana. The congressman just proved that it is active.”
And it’s been spreading for years.

- People don’t elect candidates because they are “excellent representatives”. That requires logical thought, and recent elections have proven the overwhelming majority of voters either can’t do it, or they hate and fear it. People elect candidates because of emotional self-identification; they feel their chosen candidate is more like them than the other guy. They elected a two-legged pig. “Good representation” for a herd of two-legged pigs is an oxymoron if there ever was one. He may be good at getting their trough refilled but he will be a disaster for the rest of the country, and for the overall intelligence of the human race.
- Irrelevant. It doesn’t matter to humans how pigs feel about pigs.
- That is a truly horrifying thought. Maybe we should nuke Louisiana.

Not active enough. Maybe we should feed meth to the little buggers.

When I read about this yesterday, I couldn’t even believe it was real.
Also, I don’t think I need to say this, but - don’t read the youtube comments. Trust me on that one.

Truth and Satire arent anything like each other. They’re not even in the same ballpark.
Its would be wrong to call a potato a fruit. But it would be really wrong to call it a trombone.

There are degrees of falsehood. It is less false to say that Earth is spherical than to say it’s cubic.
