Thank you for your excellent observation.
All of us who have spent time in France and know French people, well know they are decent, hardworking, gracious, hospitable people.
So many French people, especially young people, have visited the US and bring home memories of a great time, and friendly, wonderful Americans.
If we believe what the MSM tells us, we would accept that all are Americans are like the ones they stereotype, and all the French hate America, hate American culture , and all the other ugly things I read. Mostly, I might add, written by people who have never set foot in France, and have never shaken the hand of a French man , woman or child.
I visited France last year around Paris. I did not find the French to be overly friendly but not overly rude either generally speaking.
