HI Roger, I've read all the segments of the thread and I, personally, do not see any anti-U.S. rhetoric in the comments. I do see reaction to excessive authoritarian control over our hobby in this country by individuals outside the CONUS environs.
Besides, us "Yanks" have a fair amount of country-bashing history when holding up the tenets of THIS country on more than one occasion. That said, there's one thing we all seem to have in common and that is a healthy desire for government controls (and quasi- agencies like ARRL) to get off our backs and let us experiment and grow like we used to.
