I am also confused about this statement. Is it because of the stereotypical american being homophobic?

It's more about the often hear statement that british people (and europeans in general) aren't so uber sensitive about ranting and joking about sexualt stuff, often at the cost of themselves, and the americans being stuck up

Not saying this is true or anything, but I think there's an obvious DIFFERENCE between the cultures present.

I'm also confused, because I'm American as fuck and love penis.

I'm dutch so I actually understand it.
it's not as much that being straight would make use say you're american.

it's just that whenever you go out of you way to insult people as being a bunch of homo's that's an american thing. you'd be surprised how many times you see this and the person is american... it's crazy
non-americans dont see being a "homo" as anything remotely to an insult. hense why non-americans simply dont use it. unless they have been around other americans for way too long :/

so yeah, found the american ^^

oh, and I'm not calling americans homophobic. it's just that calling people homo's as a joke is just... really american :/ it just kind of makes me sigh in disappointment...

I live in Portland. We love to be #PROGRESSIVE

Eh, small town in PA where you either know everyone or never talk to anyone. It's like Finland, but with Sauerkraut and summer.

If I did that, who would you call a homo then? I'm only thinking about your future.

So I was right?

that really happened. it's on the newspaper everyday now (although you hav to mention that it took them 3 or 4 days to cover this in the first place, so you could ask why it took them so long)
but they don't know if they were really all immigrants. most likely they were people already living in germany, but i don't know and i guess they won't tell.

didn't know I could get downvoted for asking for sources...jesus...

Use google translate unless you can read German

The majority of news stations are left-leaning and/or pushing pro-refugee agendas, so they'd rather just focus on Trump and Clinton having arguments that elementary school kids would find petty or misrepresentations of other events. That's the case in the US, at least. There were tons of women being raped/assaulted in Germany during New Years, and it'll probably happen the next time there's a big celebration (I think there's one in February).
