Many tourists have zero respect for local culture, people, environment etc - no wonder cities around the world are getting annoyed. We live in wonderful times, with travel being so accessible. If we are a bit responsible and respectful, travel can be a fantastic experience - but no, we have to abuse it, as with every nice thing in life. This might come off as bitter but it is also true, so I understand when you say this thread isn't helping your (our) attitude towards people.
