Yes, it probably will. Although I've never understood why anyone in the world hates the French except us British and the Germans. After all, the French helped America on several occasions, I suppose it's ok to hate the people...
 
I think it's because America saved the French from the Germans twice in the last hundred years and they so NO appreciation. The next time the Germans take France I say we let them keep it.

Good idea.

I want to point something out: Germans and British are not the lone ones to hate French. Almost 90% of English-Canadians and over 51% of French-Canadians hates French. It's sounds weird, eh ? Let me explain...

Our hate for French came from the 70s-80s, when Québec (the province) was in a great "Nationalism Revolution". Quebecers wanted to have their own country. And a day (I don't remember the exact year), France's President, Charles De Gaulle, came in Montréal to visit us. The last day of his trip, he publicly spoken on the town hall's balcony, in front of a huge crowd of Nationalists. He said:

"Je me sens comme à Paris le jour de la Libération. Vive le Québec... Vive le Québec LIBRE !"

Translation (it should sounds like this): "I'm feeling like I felt the day of the Liberation of Paris. Long live to the Québec... Long live to the FREE Québec !"

Nationalists were happy as a pig in sh*t and the others wanted to kill him. He was talking like if we were under "siege" by English-Canadians. What a mother f*cker !

So you're not the lone one to hate French. I hate them too.
 
I always knew a lot of French Canadians hate the French. When I said the British, I was thinking of the people that sprung out from Britain as well.
Americans still don't have much right, if it wasn't for them the Union wouldn't have won, and the British colonists wouldn't have been able to put up any fight with the British Army.
 
Sure could, it's a shame really they might have a few decent fighters and they all get tarred with the same brush.
 
speaking of the french, on top gear lastnight the french police were urging clarkson to drive fast because he was in an aston martin and then later on he said "i trust the french..." (sorry, was so funny just though it was worth a mention ) he also said "this is what scares the french - shouting at them"

I saw that, classic episode. He was racing in his DB9 to Monte Carlo, against the others who were going by train. It was great.

They said the French were trying to lead him into a trap... Like their cars would have caught him in that thing...
 
yup and they tried to get missile lock on a lotus exige with and apache, and the downdraft from the blades literally blew the car across the tarmac
 
And afterwards they did what the Apache really would have done, plus they gladly pointed out that, that 30mm cannon would have just ripped him apart.
