Do those things actually happen on the US? Because they all look like things that happened once and the media run away with them.
Comment on American tourists visiting the EU, what do you think of it?

Boring. Got into cab at Heathrow and wasn’t given a firearm for protection by the driver for whatever reason. Rented a car later and they didn’t have any lifted trucks. None of the cars could even roll coal!
I went to go and insult random teachers on the street, and people didn’t join in with me and threaten their lives. They even defended them! Needles to say that made me even angrier I wasn’t issued my standard citizen firearm.
In France, no one spoke English even though I spoke loudly and slowly. Naturally, I told them to go back where they’re from. I poured oil on the ground and it it in fire as a signal for other patriots, but sadly I was alone in that wilderness.
The one thing I liked about Europe was how they talked about and treated immigrants. Closest to home I felt during the whole trip. How disgusting and evil immigrants are as the one conversation where I could see who the real Americans are over there.

They’re are for more guns than people in the United States. I had someone “roll coal” on my while riding my bike. People are awful to teachers and we pay them very little.
We don’t usually our oil on the ground and try to light it though. That’s pretty hard, we usually just use gasoline.

We don’t pour oil on the ground to light it, we pour it into smudge pots and light it. But only after we’re drain it from our trucks oilpan after the recommend 1000 mile interval

Unless I’m missing something in particular you’re talking about.
No, I’m really asking that. I’ve heard about “rolling coal” happening, but the other ones are hard to imagine. (To be fair, rolling coal was also hard, but it’s well evidenced.)

I was driving this weekend, a truck turned onto the road ahead of me, stayed stopped in the right hand land until I got near to them, then slammed on the gas spewing a massive cloud of filth that entirely enveloped my car. Thankfully my wife and I noticed it beforehand and rolled our windows up.

Well put it this way: Kamala Harris, the democratic presidential nominee, just made clear in the debate that she and her VP nominee Walz are both gun owners because it will help their campaign. So…

Trolling. And I have seen it so much better.

Haha, reminds me of a holiday ages ago in France.
Someone left their handbag behind or something, and my friend said “I’ll sort it out, I know French”. To be fair, he did. But when I went back to tell him where we ended up, he was speaking slowly and loudly to the poor french person.
Which reminds me of another time in France, having breakfast. I ordered “orange juice” and the waiter looked confused. So I said it again slower, and his face lit up and said “ah, jus d’orange”.

It is easier to understand a foreign language when it’s spoken slowly (well, not too slowly).
The loud part is just for the benefit of the speaker.
