"America: Right or wrong"
Something that I can't seem to understand myself.
It's akin to having a new family car that you're extremely proud of. A car that while you have the rest of the family in it, aern't allowed to comment on the fact that you just stepped on a board with a nail in it and now you have a flat tire. Rather they're all supposed to ride along and not comment on the flat tire and the need to fix it lest they "hate" the car or are only focusing on the negative and not on how beautiful the car is or where it's taken you all before. And that you should shut the fuck up and get off the car if you don't like it. And all the while the tire gets worse threatening to mess up the rim and later the entire car.
I think that analogy works.
Here. Some Boondocks. So that when Aaron McGruder one day prints something completely inflammatory, MrJLA can jump around like a crazed baboon proclaiming he's going to "hit me" with it regardless of whether I agree with it or not. Since of course all so-called "liberals" are of a hive mind. This particular strip though encapsulates so much seeing as how it's not even 2nd nature to joke about prison sexual abuse here in this country. So saying that beahviour is "un-American" does come off rather false.
