Maybe getting wound up is one of his favorite passtimes
For all intensive purposes he's a vegetarian, even though he eats fish. Maybe he could have a nice expresso and make it a mute point. He could also wet his appetite and avoid hunger pains. At least he's not bias against being at your beckon call.

rednoise beats women. It starts with verbal abuse, then moves into physical abuse.
Sometimes with an open fist, sometimes with a closed fist. Sometimes with a belt.

Not at all. "My country", "my family", "my school", these are all perfectly normal and commonplace phrases, and hardly anyone ever misinterprets them in the way you're twisting them now.
when making neutral declarations, this is correct. when making normative statements of preference, however, this imparts a connotation of personal possessiveness lacking in the former case.

saying "everyone at my school is on drugs" is connotatively different from "a whole student body on drugs is not what i want for my school."

eta: this is even more pronounced when we're talking about specific rather than general objects, e.g., saying "my country" rings very very differently from saying "my america" even absent any context. saying "my Tr" is analogous to the latter.
When people say "my America", they're not generally suggesting that it isn't also your America. It's not about exclusive ownership. It's just a way of emphasizing a feeling of personal attachment.

When people say "my America", they're not generally suggesting that it isn't also your America. It's not about exclusive ownership. It's just a way of emphasizing a feeling of personal attachment.
how much political rhetoric do you actually listen to, when things like "my America" come up? there is almost always an air of exclusive ownership whenever people say "my America." President Obama should never be president of my America, I want to take my America back (as if it were an item or commodity stolen from them), etc. it is within the context of a larger group, but it's always attached to a deeply personalized, individualistic feeling of ownership over "America." sometimes this is conflated with a more corporate "we need to take our America back" but almost always it switches back to referring to the individualistic idea.

but then again, i'm not really concerned about the use of "my America" within American society, because we're not a democracy ('least federally.) to my broader point, individualizing these normally public spaces and ideas has no useful place in a democracy. if i went into a worker co-op and decided to start saying that i wanted "my co-op" to do things a certain way, i'd be ostracized pretty goddamn quickly. the point of democracy is that it is a communal thing. the park down the road isn't "my park," it's "our park"..."our" being the community i'm apart of.
