@Janedow Seems like you're new to SatW. The whole point of the comic is stereotypes and global perception. Neither of which are actual reality, which is the point. I don't view Brother or Sister America as representative of me, yet I can still laugh at them, even when they hit a nerve. Sometimes especially then. There's one strip about seatbelt and gun safety laws that is completely wrong because federal law doesn't apply and I could have gone off all over that one as you did here. Instead I shrugged and noted to myself that Brother America should have asked Sister America to hold his beer first. Because really, whatever he was doing probably would have involved alcohol if this was reality.
