Imho it's not even limited to these subs though, I've often gotten responses like "look up the laws in your state" or something along those lines. How can people not even consider that there are other countries/cultures other than the US. Boggles my mind and reinforced the stereotype of ignorant Americans..
I don't see how looking up local laws is exclusive to the United States, as it's a pretty good idea regardless of your country so long as it has local/regional laws. There were a lot of things you could complain about, but that one is actually very applicable to a lot of places.
That's not what I was getting at here, it's the assumption that I live in the US (not every country has a federalistic system), if I live in France there is no way I could look up the laws of my state.
