"Don't need any help from people who don't live here and if you don't why do you care. You have no reason to worry cause you ain't walking around here in the states.

Can I refer you to my post for an answer to that question:

Also, as I will be walking around there later in the year (hopefully) then is that enough reason?

Unfortunately olddude, you might not like everyone taking an interest in the US's internal affairs but then you are probably underestimating the influence your country has out here in the rest of the world, and your governments have actively sought to be the sole remaining superpower. You can't laud yourself as the light of liberty and justice in the world and not expect everyone to a) take an interest of b) have an opinion.

Aside from that, as I said in my earlier post you don't have to live somewhere to love it or care about it and it's people, and that goes for the states as much as anywhere. It's why we feel and share your pain over Boston. Sorry.
