Why is this? Does everyone really think they are all as bad as they are made out to be?

One thing I would say, look to your own countrymen before knocking other countries. We aren't all perfect. Every American BM I have met in LOS have been sound guys to chat and drink with. Some of the comments in previous posts have been a bit too derogatory IMO.

I have met very nice Americans and also some rude ones. Like you said, look at your own country before saying something like "big fat and rude", that's not nice.

One American tourist i as drinking with a couple of weeks ago explained to me his thoughts of why there are 2 kinds of Americans, one that travels and knows the world and respect it, and another that thinks America is the only country in the world.
