Comments
CNN is reporting today that Depp says his comments were "radically out of context," adding, "There was no anti-American sentiment."
"What I was saying was that, compared to Europe, America is a very young country and we are still growing as a nation. My deepest apologies to those who were offended, affected, or hurt by this insanely twisted deformation of my words and intent."

This quote is true -in my opinion-, but Johnny merely stated his opinion, it wasn't supposed to be hurtful. He's not trying to put down America, he is an american. Why is no one allowed to voice their opinion anymore without someone finding some fault in you?
