That is not going to attract someone to visit, there is nothing world class in Philly, those things you list are kind of generic.

Amsterdam is famous for people going there for drugs and prostitution. The Netherlands is worse than South America.

Philadelphia has larger population too

Dude, just quit posting nonsense. I live in Philadelphia, and I've been to Amsterdam. There simply is no comparison. None. One is world class the other is not. You sound so juvenile.

Why oh why are so many Americans so arrogant about the US? Any ideas?

Be careful, you might make Americans heads explode with information that doesn't compute. You know, guns and more guns make us all much safer than Europe. Oh but we need those guns to protect us from our own govt which any minute is going to turn into a totalitarian regime and put us all in concentration camps. Do you Europeans ever look at us and think what kind of crazy people live there, and how did they end up like this?

Lol, this country is going to hell, and Americans are the most clueless bunch.

I wonder how many of those 45 votes for the US come from OneLess I bet every time the EU has one vote more, he creates a new account to even the score, lol.

There is no comparison whatsoever...

Amsterdam: 4.4 murders per 100.000

Philadelphia: 21.2 murders per 100.000

New York: 5.6 murders per 100.000

I am sorry but you lose... big time.

Isn't that a common statement among Belgian seperatists and nationalists?

You probably do that that's why EU has surprisingly still many votes. BTW you get banned for creating multiple accounts. I have real life besides doing that.
