From CJ himself:
"Sorry, but when someone says "GOD DAMN AMERICA" several times, shrieking at the top of his lungs, it's not even debatable whether he hates America."
I immediately thought of what a parent might say to a kid who just threw a baseball through the front window, and it kind of reminds me of what Al Franken said:
"We love America just as much as they do. But in a different way. You see, they love America the way a four-year-old loves her mommy. Liberals love America like grown-ups. To a four-year-old, everything Mommy does is wonderful and anyone who criticizes Mommy is bad. Grown-up love means actually understanding what you love, taking the good with the bad, and helping your loved one grow."
You see, America has thrown a few metaphorical baseballs through a few windows.
