Oh, come now; this is not an issue of citizens! Let's keep ranting about a people, not people. I do like a great many people here, and many strangers have been very kind to me. Remember that bit in 7th Sea about how it wasn't until maybe WWI and the accompanying nationalism that people started taking against citizens for the actions of their countries? It's like that. I could rail against the English national character all the day long, just as I can rail against Americans; but if you start asking me to point to individuals, I have to note that they're all quite nice.
