Balls?

Reader comment on item: Europe vs. America
in response to reader comment: America vs Europe? The basic difference.

Submitted by Joris Goosen (Netherlands), Aug 17, 2007 at 06:20

Why are you so proud of your *balls*? or should I say "why are you so proud of wanting to die(!) for your beliefs?"

the reason many Europeans do not wish to die for their own countries is probably because of the fact we've had 2 major wars fought out on our continent with millions of people dying for their countries and the only thing we got out of it was death and destruction!
So I'm terribly sorry if you think of us European men (yes I'm an example of them) as being Ball-less but think of us as being well.... I don't know, reasonable? because what would the use be in destroying another country for their beliefs if it only results in economic and moral bankrupt?
