People around the world have been calling the people who lived in the 13 original states "Americans" since before the citizens of the 13 original states called ourselves "Americans". We used o call ourselves "New Yorkers" or "Virginians" or whatever. "Americans" was acceptedfrom overseas.ScottL wrote:I expect more from you Kite. You ignored the fact that I said U.S. citizens have appropriated the name "American" incorrectly. We're so entitled here, we really could use some humility.Ok, I get you. So all those folks in staged protests shouting "Death to Americans" are REALLY after the Brazilians and Peruvians, and Mexicans, and Canadians.....
Then we got "big" and such people stated accusing us of all sorts of nasty stuff. Well, F' em, let them be jealous. I'm not going to cry over it!
