What amazes me is that most of your ancestors left Europe to get away from oppression and tyrannical governments and now, in the 21st century,  your government is way more tyrannical than anything we have in Western Europe.

They even put provisions in your constitution to arm the populous to keep the government in check. 

I think its time for you guys to hands the guns back, all you guys seem to use them for is robbing convenience stores and shooting up schools.  What is the point giving every citizen the right to bear arms if your own government can get away with spying on you in broad daylight?

I've long since accepted that everything you do on a cell phone is probably being logged somewhere so this is not surprising at all.

In that case there isn't really anything to worry about, let alone do something about.

This devolved into Europeans self-fellating over their superiority quite quickly.

We are superior.  Ill give you an example.  The other day I rang my mate to see if he wanted to go to the pub (that's what we English call a bar or drinking establishment) and I said, "do you want to go to the pub?" and he said, "yeah" and at no point could I hear could I hear Barack Obama breathing in the background.  It was amazing.

I thought you English didn't like to be called Europeans. Keep the Pound, the BNP, and all that good stuff.

We get called many things.  You should try ordering a parcel online and getting it sent to England.  You get a drop down menu and you have to select your country, sometimes its England, sometimes its Britain, sometimes its Great Britain, then you have to try U.K, then United Kingdom, then sometimes they use U.K but they don't put it in alphabetical order so the UK isn't under "U" its actually above Andorra, so being called European is no big thing.

I imagine that grates the nerves.
