Are you sick of the Brits coming to the US?

I live here in Florida and they are coming here in droves because of the exchange rate, that and their country has more Pakistinians than Pakistan itself, then they get over here and tell us what is wrong with the US, how British Special forces are better than US troops, Football(soccer) is superior to our American Football, how our immigration system screws them over etc. etc. Anybody else feel like telling them to G.T.F.O?

I have lots of British freinds over here, I guess I should have clarified my question, are you sick of the really obnoxious Brits?

To sicilyuk, maybe it will be a lot easier to just accept the facts that the British that come here with the "Holier-than-thou" attitude towards us are because they are that way. When I was a manager for a Hilton Hotel, in Florida, I remember some British tourists checking in. When I asked for their ID (Common policy), they were shocked as if I asked if they stole something from the gift shop. He told me they didn't have that non-sense in England and then I listened to him patiently for the next 5 minutes he was telling me how everything was better overthere than here. After he was done, I explained to him that this isn't England, this is the United States and we DO require ID when checking in. He had no choice but to do it. So don't excuse their behavior because of us "interfering with other governments" and all that other bullcrap you mentioned because you Brits pretty much have that similar record of doing that in India, Egypt, Kenya and many others, so watch out for those falling splinters if you're going to throw stones from inside your house of glass. And if Bush knocked on Blair's door for Iraq, who was it that knocked on Roosevelt's door when you had that little thing going on over there called WWII?. Let me think now....Oh, that's right!, Winston Churchill!.

You may have a point, we don't get many Brits in Texas so I really wouldn't know. On the other side of the coin, have you ever seen the way Americans act when they're in Europe? I have and I can honestly say there were times when I would shut my mouth and slip out the door hoping no one would associate me with the group that would be there. Boorish behavior goes both ways.

We need more Brits here they are so hot!!

You need to change the bars you hang out at.

Don't worry, be happy.

NO, I'm not, I think that the Brits are a good thing to the USA. They are our friends and they have proof that in the battle field. Right now they are having problems, because the Muslims are taking over their country and they are coming here to regroup and then return back home and take over. Good luck

Sick of Brits? Not a bit. I find them quite amusing.

I lived with a Brit for four years, a very intelligent, well educated man. He was a robot engineer, and had numerous inventions under his belt. He told me just how difficult it was for him to immigrate, even though he had a Masters degree from a prestigious English University. I think that any new Brits are a great boon to our country. Close the door to Mexico, and open it to Great Britain.

I personally wish we had more Brits (at least they speak English). I just laugh it off when they talk about how they are "superior" to Americans in general, they´re just trying to get a rise out of you anyway.

Is this just in Florida? I like the Brits and I can't see that they are coming in "droves" because they assimilate very well.

You can ask are the British tired of Americans coming in droves to their country.

Are you jealous or something?

No, and Americans do the same thing if not worse when they go overseas. Better they should come here with their opinions and spend their money in our economy than spend it in their's.


xtraudinair
well, basically everything you mentioned they are kind of right. but i could see how other people being right all the time could get annoying.

Nope u have your choice... Brits or Cubans,... Puerto Ricans? i know what your answer is.... Brits are kool

You may be right, concerning some Brits, but you can't generalize...

The same problem exists in Latin America with the Spanish tourists. Many Spanish men go to Colombia or Dominican Republic only to date girls living in poverty...It is a shame !
And so do many Israeli tourists, who act as criminals towards the Palestinians, but who travel the world looking for poor girls to abuse...

The French tourists also are arrogant in Africa and Arab countries...

And don't forget that the most arrogant tourists in the world are the Americans...I live in Paris, and I see that many of US tourists believe that this city belongs to them...

I may be sick because of these dirty attitudes, but I won't generalize...

I like anyone who comes here legally and acts like a good guest.

At least they come with money, unlike the invaders from the south....I do agree with you about people from other countries one upping on things....relax, take their money if you can and be happy that they will go leaving us richer ....not staying and having anchor babies at our expense and commtting crimes....

I'm not sick of British people; their accents are funny! Now Central/South Americans...that's a different story.


Dee Why!
i dont mind them. its fun to listen to them talk.

I've never actually seen one. That's interesting. Would you please send them over here to California. I would find them very refreshing.


damo
If they are tourists, the more the better. It's only more money for the economy. If they are moving, that's good too, because I personally like British people better than a lot of other immigrants who speak their filthy pig languages in public. Also, it's okay if they need to make themselves feel better about their shortcomings. Everyone knows that, if soccer was popular in America, we'd be the best at it JUST LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE). But it's not popular, because we have a MANLY sport- footbal. Instead of sissy soccer.

My English teacher is a Brit and I love her accent. However I don't like it when she calls my essay "rubbish" and says "to bloody hell with ya!" LOL :)

actually you might find that less and less are in fact going. your own tourist people are panicking like hell ever since you introduced mug shots and fingerprinting, many feel like criminals before they even enter the country,every second advert here is from Disney begging us to come over, article after article in the media telling us how good it is. your immigration staff have been told to smile and make more entry point at the airport so there are less queues so i cant see this one myself.still if you think your country will be better off without tourism the employment it brings, and the money they spend in the community good luck to you hey go for it.


Promethius
I couldnt agree more. All of Europe is like that. Just because the are weak. What we need to do is withdraw all aid from the rest of the world and watch it crumble. They want to criticize us well lets give them what they want. Then we will see who is better. Britain couldnt win a war alone if they tried...but who could..we could. No country in Europe goes to war without its allies. We say screw them. And why becuase we are the most powerful country in the world.


thewilds01
you just one who can't handle the Truth.
all you said in your statement if in fact the way it is


BUsiness man
Nope. I don't care who comes here as long as its done legally. They assimilate to the American way and pay freakin taxes.

How about this: I am an American living in the UK and guess what - it IS better over here!! And US immigration is awful!

I'd rather live here any day than back in the US. The UK is at least civilised.
