Why do Americans overreact to question about themselves??

Question

they call it obssession to attack people. are they angry??? people ask question out of curious not obssession.

Answer 1

Can you give some examples? I'm not sure I know what you are talking about. Honestly why can't you people write questions that don't include an incorrect premise? I mean If you are gonna ask something like this you NEED to give examples. Especially since I spend a lot of time here and have yet to see what you are talking about.  

Answer 2

The answer lies in your question.  You accuse the US of counting the medal the wrong way when there is no "right" way to count medals.  Your question suggest that the US lies, that my friend is the reason why Americans overreact.

Personally I think both ways have flaws.  The US way suggests that all medals are the same when they are not.  The other way totally ignor the silver and bronze which should mean something.

Also, the meaning of the medals depend on the athletes themselves.  To some, getting a silver mean defeat but to others the silver and bronze mean victory and bring great joys.  Look at that Afghan's only medal and see the joy it brought.

Answer 3

would u get all pissed if someone asked "why are u a f*g?"  

Answer 4

Well, gee, what can we find wrong with this question?

Number 1: The atrocious grammar. For example:

"People ask question out of curious."

Number 2: No examples. Where have Americans attacked or insulted you on this site? We can't answer the question if you don't show us what happened.

Number 3: Why do you have such a hate against capital letters?

Before you call me a defensive American, I just thought I'd tell you, I'm not American.
