A bunch of French Canuckers booed the Stars and Stripes at a school "parade of flags" assembly, and jeered an eighth grade U.S. born girl causing her to cry. For those of you that don't know much about Canada, Quebecers are known (even amongst normal Canadians) for their rudeness. They put the French in French Canadian.

I tend to be thick skinned about these sorts of things. Having once worked for a Canadian company, I've known many of them and come to like our neighbors to the North. I know that many of them are misguided on the war in Iraq, gun control, and their various socialist programs. But overall, I still have a positive impression of their people.

I'm even thick skinned when it comes to the French. Sure, I hate France like every good American should. I've also only ever met one French person I would call a friend (she knows who she is) and aside from that one exception, I generally detest French people. Still, no matter how much the French run us down or burn our flag, I don't go around renaming french fries, or refusing to eat french dressing, french bread, and French's mustard. That's because I know that no matter how bad they say we are, I know that at least we aren't French.
