1. So what. In an open society, it is easy to find examples of all
the wrong things.

It's also easy, in America, to find out _about_ those wrong things, a little
nuance our Canadian tut-tutter seems to miss (although Canadians don't seem
to have a strong grasp of many things American in the first place). As
compared to the Soviet Union, or China, or Japan, or even many topics in
Europe where it's difficult if not impossible to find out about these things
on your own regardless.
