It's a pretty simple point Chinu.
I believe, as do many others, that a citizen of this country has more standing to to criticize the current government than does someone who is not a citizen. Obviously, anyone, even the little Gecko on the Geico commercials, is free to criticize. But when that criticism comes from someone not a citizen, that is a factor that a reader ought to be able to take into account in assessing the speaker's credibility.
You, for example, have posted that you are a naturalized citizen. Great. I'm glad you thought enough of this country to go to the time and effort to become naturalized.
AS has a name that suggests she/he is a citizen - American Spirit.
She/he posts as if she/he is a citizen.
Yet she/he has an idiosyncratic tendency to spell certain words in a manner that suggest he/she may not be a citizen.
"organised"
"defence"
So I asked a simple question. Is AS a citizen of this country? (I say "this country" because, as I sit and type this, I am firmly planted in one of the 50 states).
Simple question, and it should have a simple three or two word answer.
For whatever reason, AS chooses not to respond, which suggests to me that the answer to my question is...
<font color=red><font size=10>No.</font>
<font color=black>Which in and of itself raises a number of interesting issues about AS's intentions, motivations and agenda.
