Should I post or should I not 
What I can see is that its OK to Flame, bait, troll, whatever when its about france, but when you make half a troll concerning guns or the US in general your get ruled #4 and banned for a week in a blink.
Look at it this way, mon ami ... You have skinnier women, better food, better wine, the Riviera (even if it is largely owned by the Russian Oligarchy), and common borders with Italy and Monaco.
We have Rosie O'Donnell, the Gulf Coast, Taco Bell, Budweiser and share a border with Mexico.
Can't you just take the flaming and call it even?
