It's odd that the French, whose streets are often filled with the Gilet Jaunes, riot police, tractor protests, and who accept the clearing of the Calais "jungle", etc, think Americans "love to fight." Granted, the US probably racks up more protests, especially in smaller communities, but it was the American Revolution that actually inspired France's will to overcome their monarchy! Rousseau's words “Man is born free and everywhere he is in chains” continue to inspire movements around the world. So, I say, France should be proud to have provided the psychological underpinnings for America's dedication to freedom and the continual struggle it demands.
