		<description>I have been watching Top Gear since it has been introduced to Netflix. I really enjoy the show and I enjoyed all of the presenters on Top Gear. As I watched more and more episodes, I began to notice hateful comments towards the United States. At first it was like a little pin prick. Then I found that I became increasingly offended by what he was saying about my country. My father was born in England. He came here when he was 7 with my grandmother. My grandfather was bomber pilot flying missions over England to protect their wonderful nation when he met my grandmother. He eventually brought my grandmother to the United States. My father was born in Corby, England. Jeremy seems to believe the United States consist of the southern states. He refers to Europe as the civilized world. I do not like being lumped up with the few southern Americans he has come across. I also believe that the United States has produced some vehicles that were not of the best quality. Lately, however, I feel that the vehicles from Ford and GM have been increasing in quality and I am rather proud of the latest vehicles being produced.  As said in some recent posts, I try to take Jeremy with a grain of salt. I dont know if he really feels the way we think he feels about the United States. He may act this way for ratings or he may really feel that way about our great nation. One thing I can say for sure is that I find it increasingly hard to watch Top Gear, especially after reading some of posts by the British people here. As for Rob, I do find that the comments made to you were about your skin color or race to be in bad taste. I hope that you do understand that not all Americans feel this way and again, please do not let a few rotten apples spoil the bunch. Most of us are of mixed decent and are not racist, cheeseburger eating gluttons. Again, my father is English and Polish. My mother is Puerto Rican. My wife is Vietnamese. And my children will be a mixture of all. I think that Jeremy fails to see the bigger picture of what being a United States Citizen really is. We are a great nation of mixed decent. This country has produced some of the most amazing people to ever walk this planet. No one can deny the greatness of this nation if you have studied history properly.</description>

		<description>I watched the good, the bad, the ugly dvd and he is pretty off in the comparison of vehicles that are supposed to be similar but then again he has a target audience and I would venture to say that the American public was not one and that could account for the reason why the program was so outlandish. 

Calling a new Chrysler a muscle car though...I truly hope he was not serious there or he would look but the fool.</description>

		<description>I am a fan of top gear but JC&#039;s childish ranting or humor (depending on which side of the coin you are on) gets old pretty quickly. That is why I don&#039;t bother watching his dvd&#039;s anymore, without RH and JM he is just too much.

He is an entertainer of sorts, gets attention and viewers by being outlandish, making asinine statements and just ranting for the sake of it. So while it can be a bit much no matter who he is bashing you sort of have to take it with a grain of salt. Who knows what he truly feels and to be honest, I could care less about his opinions on foreign policy, society or culture. 

I watch top gear because of the great automobiles, the funny challenges and because it is entertaining when they are going on about cars.</description>

		<description>Why should anyone in the USA care what some rotten tooth, fish &amp; chips eating Red Belly has to say about the USA? They have dragged us into the European wars more times than they should admit and JUST finished paying their debt in 2006 for us saving them from speaking Kraut. Jeremy can drive all the $200,000 English luxury boxes that &quot;Go around the bend fast&quot; that he wishes. England manufactures less cars in a year the the USA does in a month. The UK could not keep up with the needs of our Nation on their best days. Their machines were complete junk until foreign auto builders moved in. Lucas electronics and overheating tinker toys are the TRUE legacy of British autos. While Jeremy drives one of the 800 or so Quarter Million Dollar machines Briton Builds the few... the rest of us who live in the REAL WORLD, with traffic lights, Stop Signs, speed limits and long, flat perfectly smooth freeways with drive our big, comfy American Cruisers and love every minute of it. The UK equals roughly the land mass and population of Georgia and Pennsylvania just two of our Mid Sized States. If they had a REAL Nation that sprawls from Atlantic Ocean to Pacific Ocean and from the Tropics in Florida to the Arctic Circle in Alaska. they would have a right or perhaps even some understanding of what REAL Nations must deal with. But in truth, they are a tiny island who has lost nearly every single Colonial Land they invaded and made slaves of in the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries... they are the past... they are NOTHING but crown worshiping, rotten tooth fools.</description>

		<description>Ease it off guys. Clarkson might be rude but he usually does have a point. The way he talks is just the british way. British humor is intelligent use of english (let&#039;s be honest, its something most americans can&#039;t do), hyperbole, simile and stereotypes. Infact I&#039;m a big fan of british humor (or humour for my english friends), and I cock about similarly with my friends. And if you say americans aren&#039;t rude, that is utter rubish because I know since I am brown skinned and south asian and I get coments like &quot;oh so you&#039;re indian? Does your dad work for the taliban? Hahah.&quot; That clearly underlines the ignorance and rudenes of the american public.</description>

		<description>Maybe this whole discussion should be a lesson about generalizations. They are never completely true. The American government is a broken mess and has been from the beginning. Many Americans hate the things our elected officials have done. Personally, I do find many Americans to be obnoxious and ignorant. They tend to be the ones who are seen on television and in the news.  BTW I&#039;m American. I certainly agree that we take ourselves too seriously. Everyone needs to take a deep breath and get a sense of humor. Jeremy is just one man. He can think whatever he wants. No one ever said he was some enlightened genius.</description>

		<description>Jeremy Clarkson is most certainly an American hating biggot. That&#039;s not even up for debate. I have a strong feeling that JC is going to die via a bullet to the head. He&#039;s lucky it hasn&#039;t happen already. 

But yeah he should be removed from TG A.S.A.P. It&#039;s bad enough that he&#039;s a steaming pile as a human being but he knows absolutely dick about cars. All he does is misinform the ignorant.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t think he hates the U.S.  I think is just part of the show to make fun of the U.S. in the same way Americans make fun of Canadians sometimes.  Once in a while it gets out of hand and it&#039;s almost like he is jealous haha! Maybe he is the one who wants to be American not Richard Hammon.  There are lo t of problems in Europe and in he is picking on fat people and stupid crap, who cares!  Also he defends his stupid Aston Martin and TVR and all the crap that comes from England while many Americans talk crap about their own auto industry maybe we should learn to take care of our own interests and give a chance to GM or Ford, there has been a lot of improvements in the past 3 years.
Although there are a lot of American haters out there who follow Clarkson, I think they are just jealous.  I grew up in South America, now I’m American.  Everything in the news over there is to talk crap about the U.S. I think is quiet simple, jealousy.  There are a lot of countries with problems, why don’t you talk crap about Somalia or Haiti.  And when there is a hurricane or an earthquake guess who is one of the first ones sending you help? the U.S.</description>

		<description>Banastre, I don&#039;t even know where to begin with you. It would take more time than I have right now to tear your illogical post to shreds so I&#039;ll just address your last &quot;paragraph&quot;. First off, I&#039;ll agree that American cars are crap. My last car was a Toyota and my current cars is a BMW, and I don&#039;t plan on buying domestic any time soon. Now, all of our food is terrible? Come on now, that&#039;s just your opinion. If you&#039;re going to spend so much time looking up information online to bolster the frankly weak argument you made above, you should at least back up your closing paragraph with some empirical evidence. I love Italian and Mexican food but American food has its merits too. Maybe it isn&#039;t as unique and instantly recognizable as other kinds of cuisine but there are without a doubt some good American dishes. I don&#039;t like Chinese food very much, but if I&#039;m going to try to insult their country for some extremely idiotic reason, I won&#039;t end my argument with &quot;oh yeah, I think soy sauce is gross!&quot;. That&#039;s just plain stupid. And God knows if an American can plainly see how stupid you are, you&#039;re definitely not one to be talking.

Now to the Mickey Mouse comment...really? Does anything have to be said to point out just how utterly stupid and irrelevant of a comment that was? I almost feel bad for correcting someone such as yourself with obvious learning disabilities, but someone has to do it, so it might as well be me. A comment like that, of such staggering borderline retardation, could only be rivaled by something like &quot;Great Britain is Spice Girls&quot;. See, that makes no sense, does it? Oh God, I&#039;m afraid that after writing that I might need to have my mom but a bicycle helmet on me so I can join you on the short bus.  

And finally, many Americans are obese. Hooray you can make sweeping generalizations, good for you! I can also say that many Brits are extremely boring, elitist, pompous, tea sipping, crumpet munching, wimpy old white men with bowler hats. But everyone that isn&#039;t an ignorant idiot knows that isn&#039;t an accurate representation of the British people, in the same way that any moderately intelligent person knows not all Americans are fat rednecks. That&#039;s probably what I find most amusing about stupid comments that people such as yourself make about America. You claim all Americans are ignorant and stupid, yet your own ignorance is what gave you those ideas in the first place.

I now declare you OWNED.</description>

But everyone that isn&#8217;t an ignorant idiot knows that isn&#8217;t an accurate representation of the British people, in the same way that any moderately intelligent person knows not all Americans are fat rednecks. That&#8217;s probably what I find most amusing about stupid comments that people such as yourself make about America. You claim all Americans are ignorant and stupid, yet your own ignorance is what gave you those ideas in the first place.</p>
<p>I now declare you OWNED.</p>

		<description>American&#039;s seem to be getting off on the fact that Clarkson is a nobody in the US. Don&#039;t worry, there are plenty of American&#039;s that are nobodies in the UK. As if being famous in the USA is the apex of life.

As for US presenters earning more than Clarkson? Well, have a look at Clarkson&#039;s gaff on google earth, and as we know, house prices are a lot higher in the UK than they are in the US. yank presenters must be on a high salary because the last report to come out in England regarding high earners put Clarkson on £1m per show. Yeah, thats one million pound sterling for the hour you see on a sunday night. Thats $1.5 million dollars.

Whats interesting about this debate is that it brings out all the yank idiots who seem to think they are Irish and Scottish. Im quater Irish, im half Scottish, blah blah blah. You&#039;re not quater or half anything. You&#039;re 100% American. Although we do understand your desperation to cling on to any kind of history or heritage, especially coming from a country that invents a hero figure in Uncle Sam, eats processed plastic cheese, ceated Disney World, drinks in fake Irish pubs and used to be a colony for European powers.

Whoever said Clarkson is left-wing could not be further from the truth. The fella is as right-wing as you can get without being an extremist.
And to the bloke who said Clarkson should be more thankful to American air men in WWII, would that be the air men from the country that refused to enter WWII until it was attacked, refused to loan the UK ships until the UK agreed to loaning the US 12 of it&#039;s Army bases around the world rent free for 60 years, made the UK pay back (with extortionate interest) all WWII payments (only finished repaying in 2006), made the UK open up compeition for export and trade in Asia. All before the USA turned up in Europe when WWII was nearly over.

As for the original point to why you yanks are getting upset. Why are you getting upset? Your cars are crap, your food is terrible, your country is Mickey Mouse and many Americans are extremely obese.</description>
