OT: I'm proud to be an American...

Typing from a Cyber-cafe, just to check up on the forums before I leave:

Puke, with all due respect,
You are actually proud that your country went through the McCarthy trials?!

Now, if what you mean is It's gone, it's past and thank god that plague went away, I apologize, but the McCarthy trials showed how EASILY america collapsed under paranoia, and how others and it;s own citizens had to endure it's consequences.

Not only the commitee questioned just about EVERYBODY, save themselves, that lived in the U.S., they questioned, threatend, and blackmailed FOREIGN dignitaries and offcials, which caused the death of a Canadian Ambassador, and the commitee threatening to accuse some of the UN ambassadors as communists, save the communists themselves.
