While there is certain data that can be used to show America is not the greatest country, there are also things you can point to as supporting the possibility that America IS the greatest country (i.e. being the lone superpower yet the youngest country; the amount of immigrants - legal AND illegal - that come or try to come here every year, etc.)

I suppose I could be convinced but outside of that one war, no they have not defended our rights. Look no further than the topic of this thread for evidence of that. 

What? "Maybe" they defended our freedoms? Start with the Revolutionary War and work your way forward through history and there may be an armed conflict or two that you could argue was not a defense of America's freedoms (like Vietnam or Iraq), the majority were.

Heck, one could argue that just by joining the armed forces, a man or woman is sacrificing his or her life in defense of America's freedoms. So maybe you might want to get your disrespect for our fallen soldiers checked out.

Seeing as how your protesting the people in here protesting Kaep's protest, then you just called yourself an idiot. Well done.
