I really do believe that many Americans should be less sensitive when they hear criticism of this country. Wright served in the military and has dedicated most of his life serving his community. There is no reason why this man has and should be treated like a second class citizen. Why is this not obvious? People in this country have to start being less "patriotic" (its usually superficial) and less sensitive. I've traveled to western Europe throughout my entire life and I have never heard so many people say that they are the best country like I have here in the United States. Barack Obama is the best thing that could ever happen to this place. I will be ashamed, embarrassed, and completely dissolutioned ed if this does not happen.
No this is not a generational thing, Katrina was just a few years ago. Anger is justified.
I am white and find most of the preacher's comments justified.
