Judging or embracing is everyone’s prerogative of course. My choice is to embrace it (perhaps better words would have been respect it)... I’m not American, and I don’t live there but as with everything there are opposing perspectives present. I have my own set of values ... they’ve changed over time, but I try not to impose them... happy for people to take me as I am (good or bad)
