I agree with you - As an American, he is an individual, first and foremost, not a government spokesperson.
He flies a plane, so what?
Yes, so whats all the hype?

the engineer says "i will enter heaven only as i believe it is supposed to be my reward, therefore can you promise me there won't be any pilots in there"
"i promise you" came the reply
a few days later the engineer was laying on a cloud drinking nectare when he saw an American Airlines pilot walk past. Imediately he got up and went to complain.
"i thought you promised me there would be no pilots here !!!" ranted the engineer
" oh that wasn't a pilot....that was god....he just likes to think he's one" :lol: :lol:
From a US tourist in Brazil (right off the news):
"It's disrespectful to be fingerprinted and photographed without doing anything wrong."

Simply relaying what this particular American man's thoughts were on being fingerprinted and photographed when he stepped off the plane in Brazil.
If you dislike what he thoughts are, you ought to take it up with him.
:ninja:
And uh....duh....I'm relaying that he should get over it!!! <_<Quote:

God point Zedaxax, just what i was thinking, but it might be only Americans can do things like that

Would the ability to extend the middle digit be the next step in evolution, then? I had no idea that the word suffered from contracture of the middle phalanx.
BTW, the 999 others photographed did no such thing, why let the exception represent the rule, unless of course, that fits your agenda. I certainly wouldn't let some pissy Alex Trebec/ Captain Picard hybrid, ladies room frequenter, speak for me. I assumed he was extending the finger for the purpose of "printing".
As, I said, you can't take one persons opinion and apply it as the norm. The concensus of Americans on this board have no problem with it. As myfiles3000 icily told me once, "that is ancedotal".
And uh....duh....I'm relaying that he should get over it!!! <_<Quote:

Seeing as you like to throw out the "read the post" line: read my post.
It's not referring to the pilot. It was a tourist.
