i will not die for a country that only sees me as a way of getting money
Amen... is what I would say if I wasn't atheist. My country is so full of itself that its leaders are out of touch with reality. They are used to getting what they want with no cost. What about the people with no status or money? I'm not fighting for anyone but myself and my friends, whom do NOT include corporate or political idiots.

No. I'd fight to defend myself and my way of life, but I wouldn't die for a place.

No point in defending the people of a country that tries to breed smart, decent people out of existence in favor of idiots and unfit sperm donors (oh, and walking sperm receptacles). I'd probably join the enemy's side.

You and me can watch our countries burn as we run away together ^_^
But then either I would have to go the US,or you come to Iceland.How about I grab a boat.Go get you.And then we can find a good point where we can watch both countries burn ? :p

I would. But not for any particular feeling of patriotism or sense of obligation, I rather see it as a good/bad a reason to kick it as anything else.

Ha, god no. I hate this place; if the people aren't racist they're homophobic. And racist.
The government still runs on christianity instead of modern day logic, Gay marriage illegal, small breasts banned (Remember that, guys?), no R rating for video games (And all other censorship problems, including the possibility of internet censorship, if Abbott gets in), technologically behind almost all other western countries (Also that Japan place, but that's implied) and it's really hot. Like, really hot.

Was that a joke? Were you being sarcastic? Did my text yell at you? I wrote that in a light hearted and calm manner.How could you convey that as angry?

No. As an arrogant American I really don't like my country and it's leaders, and I think by and large humanity is little more than cancerous sheep, but I would gladly fight to the death to protect my family and the few people who really matter to me.

There are some exceptions tho. If the invading enemy is evil enough (Nazi's, North Korean Communists, Muslim Extremists) I would feel compelled to fight for my ideals and to stop such filth from spreading, for the sake of what's right. Regimes, leaders, and countries come and go, but some things are timeless and worth defending. America preaches freedom like we're the only ones who truly offer it, but I would gladly give my life for liberty (no matter the nation) before I go to war for America.

(If I'm not making any sense it's because I'm exhausted from staying up all day and night after my cousin got ran over. He's fine but I'm wiped -_- Last post before I crash, may edit later to make more sense)

For my country? No. It's just a plot of land.

For the people in that land? Hell yes.
Pretty much my view. If they tried to hurt my friends or family, they would have hell to pay. Unless the invading force were better than the scum we currently had in parliment. Then I'd join them.

I would not die for my country. The people here have no understanding of Socialism, but still demonize it. Despite our claims at being secular we still freak out if there is some accusation that somebody running for high office might theoretically, potentially, follow a religion other than Christianity.

If we were invaded, I would go to Canada.
If you came to Denmark id have an open door... ^^
Consider it done. Canada (my home country) doesn't have to feel a scratch first.

OT: No, I would not. There are only a few things I respect about my country, which mainly include specific-to-Canadian-wilderness animal jokes, Lumberjack motivational posters, natural scenery, and maple syrup. Everything else can go to hell.

Depends on the invaders and the state of my country at the time, but barring the country being taken over by fascists and having other countries leading a force intending to liberate us it seems likely, yes.
