I don't see the protest of 6% of the nation as the same as an honest self-examination on the part of the population.

IMO, what you have described is our country's deeply-important freedom of speech (a freedom which, by the way, is being derided all over SI these days by those who equate patriotism with total acceptance of our current foreign policy), not self-examination.

No place on earth has what we have and I for one am grateful for it.

I, too, am a proud American. I am, however, not averse to our taking some responsibility for our support of nefarious gulf-area leaders in the interest of cheap oil.
