Maybe you should ask first also.....
My father is American born and raised, and currently lives here. My mother is Australian.
My dad's father, my grandfather, came over to the US towards the end of the second world war and joined the US army, became a ranger and highly decorated soldier, worked in intelligence directly under Eisenhower, and helped make what is better in this country.
My wife is american, my children are american, I have permanent residency, and if I don't have the right to show disdain for what I believe are agregious faults with my adopted homeland, then no-one does and lets all just put the cards down and agree to live in a fascist society.
I want to make things better, and part of that is letting it be known - in sometimes loud voice, how terrible some things are.
I believe it makes me a better American citizen, not a lesser one.
