US Armenians are known for messy Arabic? or did you mean "us Armenians"? I wish that Armenians wouldnt be known for any Arabic anywhere. Its like Soviet Armenians and Russian. There is like this funny accent that Armenians supposedly have. Ive heard it only on tv

Hi, everyone....... i'm new, so dont make me feel uncomfortable. i enjoy reading your threads, i think there very intresting and i would like to join in....

The reason that armenian's are being stereotyped negatively is that, its the negative things that make news... if the "educated Armenians" made head lines, then we will be portrayed in a positive direction. but when an armenian gets success, they tend to forget about the rest...
like they would drop the yan/ian to disassociate from the rest......u know the ones out there...... we're very jealous people, so we tend not help the one's around us. everyone looks out for their own gain (proven throughout history).... sooo, what im trying to say is, if the proud Armenians remain proud, (like the way i see you guys are in here- i hope you guys are as proud as in here as u are in society) then we will ultimatly become the superior people that we are, because we ARE superior!
Dont get me wrong im not saying that the rest are garbage, but talking from experience, and i mean experience, no other nationality has the true loyalty, hart, and mentallity like an Armenia....em i right or what!!! maybe 1 or 2 people out of 50 million, but the rest are......u know....... ok, ok, i'm getting out of point........ what im trying to point out, is once we get this "jealousy" out of us- which we have- then, thats when our stereotype will changed.....

Look at the jews, look at what they have accomplished... u know what 2, 3, 4, 5 years of imprisonment and torture would do to a person, what kind of a bond or trust will evolved from that... imagine what kind of bond will grow, with the thoudsands of mistreated hearts that u associate with, in captivity throughout the years........
When will u learn who is ur true friend? in bad times......- again, jumping out of content... but u see what im saying..

now, that we are independent, we are learning how valuable we are to each other..We need to take care of ur own and educate our children to do the same - cuz no one else will. I'M I RIGHT OR WHAT PEOPLE!!!
