Personally, I don't know a single person who actually hates the French. Of course, it's only natural to not be so happy with them after refusing to help us in the whole Iraq fiasco, so there are people who look down on the French.
I despise the French form of government (socialism), but I don't bear resentment towards them for it; that fact's not affecting me. Plus, I don't see any reason to bear irrational hatred towards the French. We're better than they are (Hell, we're America. We're better than everyone). We oughta just not care about them. --Guido http://andy.mikee385.com/ |

That site :
"- World War I - Tied and on the way to losing, France is saved by the United States. Thousands of French women find out what it's like to not only sleep with a winner, but one who doesn't call her "Fraulein." Sadly, widespread use of condoms by American forces forestalls any improvement in the French bloodline." the french... i know some french people at school...they're assholes. scrawny...stinky...never bath...greased up hair...and they kinda walk like robots...its kinda strange. French people living in france also have more leisure time than an average citizen of pretty much any other country.

The french did build tanks in WWI and WWII. And even in between. They just weren't any good with them. Anyway, i don't really like the French that much because they can't do anything!

Guido, ask people who live near french people and aren't french to find people who really do hate the french. Their lifestyle/culture is made up of customs that offend the values of us americans because of our own culture. It has been like this for a while but is being public because of the war in Iraq and how France responded to our problems

Don't post in this forum, seriously; your intelligence level is too sub-par for this place. France once owned a third of the US, a big chunk of Africa, and once conquered almsot all of Europe. The French Empire at its peak was much bigger than the American one at its peak....So shut your mouth before you say something dumb again. |

We didn't get spanked in the war of 1812, we won. otherwise we would be a colony of britain. And if it hadn't been for the U.s., Britain would have Fallen to Germany, and Russia would have been screwed. and we were involved in most of the war. WWII started in 1939, we became Extremely involved from late 1941-1945. I think the french are idiots because, why would you not be extremely thankful to a country who sent it's young men to die for you and helped rebuild your country?

You're calling my intelligence sub-par after I post a link to a joke? Nice work. I gotta tell you, your arguments weren't too compelling either. Sure, France may have had its expansion early on, but after a few trades and sales, it had been confined into a small country in western Europe. It may have been larger, but who's laughing now?
I'm not even a France-hater. I just found the site to be quite comical in its nature and found it relevant to the topic matter. I don't care at all that we changed the name of fries to "freedom" fries or anything. Nobody calls them "French" fries anymore. It's just "Fries". Don't insult my intelligence again. I didn't say I agreed with the site or even that I liked it. The only thing I did was say what the site was saying and post a link. How is that my opinion or even a representation of myself? All material copyright ALBINOBLACKSHEEP. Am I albinoblacksheep? I don't think so. It's called a joke in a topic that is relevant to such a thing. ~Squeek |

I think the french were a bit smarter and kinder hundreds of years ago, they helped us during the revolutionary war and gave us a good deal on the Louisiana purchase. Why can't they be like that now?

ok, first, to all of you quoting about how you won the war of 1812, your a moron, get your facts straight befoer you blither about anything.
importent note. Canada came down into the states and burned down the first white house. we spanked you in the only time we ever fought, the cause for us to attack you, you took over 3 over three tiny villages. we were still under british rule then so when they say british its mostly pre-canadians,

The reason people think the French are weak is that after Napoleon lost, everyone took land from France and afterwards it permanently had a reputation for weakness even if it wasn't true.

I haven't read any of this thread because by just looking at the title it looked to be a stupid post by someone who was just trying to start an arguement, and not critically discuss anything hm©

LOL... the reason why the french got owned sooo freaking bad is because they did a HORRIBLE job strategising a defence against the german attacks. LOL.....they freaking built ternches (moganah line, ya....spelling is horrible) and didn't freaking expect the germans to attack behiend them. lol.....that is very funny to me. Saying that we got into the war just to stop the russians from taking europe is the stupidest staement i have ever heard. |

You did go to war because of the japs, but if u fought in Europe, that is because of the russians u moron. Or else yu would of just went fighting in the pacific. And that big trench is called the Maginot line.

Guest, their line was literally considered impenitrable. The Germans would have been slaughtered if they took the direct attack. However, the French didn't think that their allies to the North might turn out to be a passage for the Germans. They didn't think to protect every border because only one held an enemy. The Germans attacked from above, not behind.
