There is a slight tone of incredulousness.

I am sure you have noticed the reaction when American stupidity is revealed for what it is in the foreign press. Our friends favorite is still the "coffee too hot" lawsuit. However, I am sure to hear about this absurdity -- Kids being kids now illegal in America.

Oh yes. The 'koboreta macudonarudo kohi jiken' (Spilled McD Coffee Incident) has made all the rounds in Japan. They are generally very afraid of being sued as business people or even as tourists to our country.

Dems always complain about America's negative image overseas, but by and large the worst images, such as over-suing (not to mention Hollywood's images) are created and permeated by DEMOCRAT type people!

"Kids being kids now illegal in America."

No doubt, some octogenarian Japanese warrior is filled with regret that his nation did not have the patience to wait 60 years and attack this generation instead. If indeed Waterloo was won on the playing fields of Eton, we'll have no way of knowing which of our future battles may be lost on the playing fields of Massachussetts. The feminist/pacifist takeover of our culture will be the end of our nation as we know it.
