America is not without its faults, obviously. Still, I'm always amazed by two facts: 1. American citizens -- regardless of race, religion, political affiliation etc. -- will always be quick to selflessly help their neighbors in a time of crisis; it's just who we are. 2. As time passes, we tend to forget our benevolence. As we lose our humanity, we give space to negativity, hate and victimhood.
