That's what happens. All the hostility and whatnot on the other forums are what inspired Jeff to start junglecarpetpythons.com (what is now known as sSnakeSs ) A place to go where nobody had to deal with all that garbage. Doesn't matter where you come from or whether you keep one herp, no herps, or a thousand herps.

I don't see bashing so much on web discussion boards. I play on zone.com quite a bit with the screen name Canadian_Yeti....I get personal shots all the time from our neighbours to the south....Canada this and Canada that. I'm pretty good with words and not the one to leave with my tail between my legs. I have quite a few American relatives, they are all cool. I have met alot of ethnocentric Americans, really I bet the people that make fun of Canadians have never been north of the border....

Discrimination has no borders. If you have to bash on people just because they are from another country you have some bad issues.

I find more americans to be mean or discrimanitory (is that even a word?) towards me than canadians.

And PERSONALLY america isn't exactly the place to brag about right now.

I LOVE my country, I don't necessarily like the people in it.

Hey now, I was not bashing! I was just stating a personal opinion.......

I love this site, and rarely go to other sites. I get all info from here, and wouldn't get it from anywhere else, simply because this site is THE best site.

That would actually be lying, not generalizing. LMFAO.

Well, i wonder if i know what this comment was about.. Jimmy, i think we discussed the situation on PMs enough, if you feel the need to discuss it further, leave it out of the public eye and take it up with me personally, don't take your little ribs here..
