No ...
How can I be proud of a country on this planet ?
where humans kill other humans ...
pitiful mortals ...

I like where I come from, but I don't know if i'm proud.
England has the highest rate of teenage drinking, crime, and pregnancy. Those damn chavs give England a bad name.

being truthful... no I am not as proud of my country as I used to be, but that doesn't mean I hate it entirely either..

(IMHO, if you don't agree feel free to ignore this reply post)

No, I don't believe in nationalism.
There's particular countries I really like but don't believe in national or ethnic pride.

What is wrong with having pride in your roots?

Being proud. Feeling good. Feeling a positive connection and feeling a part of something bigger than yourself.

America doesn't respect multiculturalism. My South Korean parents had to cope with the WASP-y environment that I lived in and it contributed a huge cultural shock when I return to South Korea.

But thank goodness that Canada respects multiculturalism that eased my personal situation.

In my particular situation, it was definitely shameful that I lived in USA.
