Refusing personal responsibility and just looking to blame others... especially the leaders. Yes, this is a democratic country. Many different views are allowed expression. Of course! That's what we want to defend, isn't it?! But in times of crisis, it would create a better image abroad, if we could keep a united front and not squabble between ourselves...
