Glad to be an American

Just one of the millions of reasons is the recent transition of presidential power in Mexico:

Leftist lawmakers threw punches and chairs at their conservative colleagues and some tried to block the doors of the congressional chamber an hour before the swearing in ceremony was scheduled to begin.

Ruling party lawmakers, chanting "Mexico wants peace," seized the speaker's platform, while leftist opponents blocked most of the chamber's doors.

Good old clean-hearted political physical violence live on television. Although I have a feeling that the lefties in America would make just as good of a showing if properly motivated.
