Scottish Guy Unboxes Care Packages from America

[@shaunvlog]

Can’t believe this needs to be explained, but here we are: for those un-subbing before even watching my video, ‘decides’ is not a misleading statement. Regardless of whether the process still has a way to go, decides still means the process could still be underway. ‘Decided’ would be a conclusive statement. Understand your English before attacking me.

[@whatthehellisayoutube6010]

People get their feelings hurt too easy here in the states. My fellow Americans tend to get caught up in emotions and take things wayyy out of context. I'm a big fan and you are entitled to your own opinions. I will keep watching brother. Stay safe.

[@getpatriotic6046]

if people are that hot-headed to make a mission before understanding something do you really want their sub? I get baffled by how quickly people can pull a 180 about someone. This is just a title it is meant to pull people in.

Still subbed, you just may want to consider the wording of your video. Or not, it is your channel.

Mike, do you understand decides is not a conclusion? I watched an election coverage programme called America Decides that aired before the polls even closed

Shaun, I just had to comment. I love your videos for being so honest, so open to Americans and so grateful to all of your subscribers. I've seen channels where they open gifts and they not only don't bother to say thank you, they throw the gifts to the side. It rankles me and offends me when someone has gone to all of the trouble and expense and thoughtfulness to send a present halfway around the world and it's treated like it's nothing. That said, can I just add Texas misses you and come back soon? Keep on learning about the States, they're all beautiful and they're all unique. It's what makes us a great country to visit. We have things come up but we're all Americans. When the chips are down, at the core we're one people and we will always get your back. :)

In fact, this very passionate response is the key to our democracy. I and many others work along side friends and family with opposing views. Despite what the media shows... The majority of Americans are moving forward regardless of whether their candidate won or lost. It's the people that run the country, not the government.

Shaun, you mentioned Arizona during the video. First off, Gilbert is a Phoenix suburb. Secondly, yes, AZ can be stifling hot, and be warm enough in the southern part of the state to draw "snowbirds" (retirees who head to a warm climate for the winter). However, in the northern end of the state, around Flagstaff, which is near Grand Canyon, it snows. In other words, Arizona is a state with an amazing amount of variety.

The Thompson machine gun that he and his cohorts used got the nickname of "the Chicago Typewriter" from the stories written in blood by those guns on the Chicago streets by guys like Al Capone.

Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.”

Wonderful and thoughtful gifts, I really liked the handmade star. I'm glad to hear you like America so much. America was built by people from countries all over this globe and you can find their cultures everywhere you look here. I think that is why American's are so passionate about political or religious topics. We just need to remember that America ""IS"" the middle ground and we don't have to go far to find it. That's why so many people came here to begin with. I love your channel and wish the best for you and yours.

Well, as you can tell, there’s a lot of contention and anger in the US. We’re pretty torn. People are projecting their anger wherever they can, so I’m sorry that you’re encountering it. You’re 100% right that there’s a middle ground. But people have to be able to manage themselves in order to be open to it. Now, I hope for that next referendum, and for Scotland to have their moment to again decide their future.

The problem is America’s future has not been decided. I’m guessing no one took him on a tour of the fake news media propaganda machine. Our future is still very much uncertain so prayers are welcome. Please pray for us!

There is no middle ground.

There cannot be a middle ground with a bunch of cheaters

You need your own traveling America show, Shaun!

I came across your vids as I Love seeing people from around the world reacting to slang, food and other cultures. I hope to see you visit my current home near Milwaukee, my Home town of Chicago or my Mum's hometown of New Orleans! You're adorable as well. Stay true Boo
