I am proud to be a german :) I would also be proud to be an American / Japanese / etc.
Nationality has got nothing to do with you yourself! And if kids in Black Ops 2 call you an ** because of your nationality then you instantly know their IQ.

Decisively im ashamed. Most of Pole's are thieves and retarded kids.

+/- same. Poland has great story, that's right. But when I see what's going on in our country (politicians are biggest thieves in this country, government is stealing most of people earnings, retarded trolls are everywhere, whole country is swarming in old "christians" that are even more retarded [today I saw a video where some old idiot was recording kids playing football and called them pagans just because they're not participating in Corpus Christi....basically he objected to the freedom of will and faith], municipal police that is afraid to do anything when a bunch of people are fighting each other or beating up someone so instead they will go and chase persons that are for example drinking ONE beer in some quiet place......all those things and many many more) I just want it to disappear.
So basically - proud of history, ashamed of what's going on now in Poland.

This - One's nationality isn't really something to be proud of or ashamed of, it's just a matter of chance. Be proud of who you are, not what you were born into.

proud of the culture, ashamed of the degeneration of people, the increasing number of criminals, the unsolved problems on econ, and the stupid censorship on liberal thoughts and ideas (not china, FYI)

Yes that is indeed the easiest way to go around the net. Judging someone by what they "do", then you can label them for what they are. You are less likely to be disappointed when you think someone is "dumb" and it turns out true. That way at least when it turns out they're actually decent, you're a bit delighted.

Statistically speaking, 70% percent of Romanians think this.
But the truth is this is not a problem only in RO but everywhere.
And to answer the thread question, no, I am not ashamed to be a Romanian. I'm only ashamed some people can tag an entire nation (RO or any other nation) just because they had the "chance" to stumble upon specimens that evolution seams to have ignored.

To be honest i am quite ashamed to be Romanian and every single time when i went abroad and someone asked me where i am from i had a certain reluctance to tell the them truth , and what you say is quite true , today the negative examples are getting promoted and in and outside the country and because of that people tend to think that those persons represent an entire nation when that clearly its not the case.

So if they do something bad and no one knows, you won't be ashamed?

I'm pretty sure you can't reproduce by sexting, and reproduction is an accident more often than you probably think it is, and even if it wasn't that quote was talking about genetics, not conception, and even if it wasn't you don't have any choice in your nationality or ethnicity, which is the whole point.

Edited out. Damm. Sounded rather badly even if it was not ill willed.

Hey, cool. Further perpetuation of the tribal attitude that living in the same geographical region administered by the same political system means we're somehow all on the same 'team.' I'm sure that grouping ourselves along these lines, developing stereotypes and ideologies, and the inevitable conflicts that follow will prove to be really beneficial to everyone.
tl;dr: Nationality is just more superficial bullshit for people to fight over, like race or religion.

but aren't we taught to be patriotic? to have pride in our own national heritage? then they are all wrong, those "adults"? (cannot think of an alternative right now,being in college but still gets lectured by lots of people always make me feel less of an adult at times.

Thank you for eloquently stating the same point I had planned to post.
There are certain governments I disagree with more than others but that has nothing to do with nationalities. I find there are a couple universal truths that hold for every nationality.
1) Most people are idiots
2) The few representatives at the top often don't represent the views and wishes of the populace

+1 Excellent summation of my opinion, (except I don't find religion to be superficial, since it's necessarily made up of everything important a person can possibly believe.)
Being "patriotic" in the sense of supporting the decisions of one's government is silly.

Why am I asking this question here?
It is common opinion that most people from my country are drunks and thieves (yes, probably many of them are ;( ). And many of them are acting like kids and boors even while playing online, I'm very ashamed of them.
When I play games online I never reveal what country I am from.
How about you? Are you proud of ashamed to be of your nationality?
