Paltrow won't raise child in U.S.
Oscar-winning actress fears 'weird, over-patriotic atmosphere'
American actress Gwyneth Paltrow said she will not raise her child in the United States because her homeland is too dangerous.
The Oscar-winning leading lady, who lives with her husband Chris Martin in London, is pregnant.
"I worry about bringing up a child in America," she said, according to the World Entertainment News Network.
"At the moment there's a weird, over-patriotic atmosphere over there, like, 'We're number one and the rest of the world doesn't matter,'" Paltrow said.
She added: "And the guns in school – it's not great."
As the Iraq war got underway last spring, a BBC Radio 1 entertainment column noted Paltrow had been speaking out about the conflict, but was careful not to take her comments too far.
She noted how much she loved her country despite her concerns, the BBC radio column said.
"It's pretty amazing how high the anti-American sentiment is in a lot of ways," Paltrow said of her adopted British home. "They call Tony Blair the vice-president!"
"I love America and I completely stand behind America," she said at the time. "But at the same time I'm a free thinking person and I question motives too and I question this war and the motives behind it."

This could go into politics, but I'd rather get everyones opinion.
Now I'll do my best to keep calm......
This stupid fucking bitch needs to keep her over-paid, by hard working over-patriotic American's, mouth fucking shut! Fuck her. Like her kid would ever step foot into a public school or ever live in a place called reality. Christ she annoys the shit outa me. I could care less that she doesn't agree with the war, but how the fuck can one move out of the country and say it's not suitable for me to raise my kid there and expect us to believe she loves America. This bitch loves your money, not America.
