Is this offensive to you?
I would like to know of it is offensive to Americans when someone in a fireteam party says "Merica!" or refers to one as a "Murican". And not also when playing Destiny but also in this forum. I am not from the U.S. so I would like to know.
Last night doing the raid one party member blew himself up by firing a rocket launcher directly inside a Titan's shield, and when he laughed someone else said "...that's not funny...it may be to you because you hail from Murica!"... and I thought that was funny but did not laugh because silence ensued. Everyone kept quiet about it.
So is it an offense? The internet tells me Americans like to joke about it too, but I dont know if its the same as being called a bitch or an idiot.
Any thoughts?

It sounds terrible. But frankly I couldn't give two shits what anyone thinks about citizens of the Untied States. I know that's a very 'merican thing to say, but I live in the greatest country on earth and everyone else can suck it. For context, I grew up in Romania and came over to the United States when I was 11. Ive seem both ends of the spectrum. I know we have our problems over here (obamacare) but there is nowhere else I'd rather live.
