Does it bother anyone when folks say "Murica", or "Merica" instead of America?

I have seen people state this on other social media sites as a point of emphasis to their statement or belief. IMO, I think this is a tad bit lazy and disrespectful. I live in, fight for, and will die in America. I know it's a form of slang, but really?

I think it arose as a way to verbalize the divide between Americans. Right or wrong, many people hate what America seems to be turning into, with the media, school systems and pop culture. The term 'Murica' simply refers to a gun loving, traditionally conservative freedom that is being taken from us every day as the media brainwashes us into focusing on their agenda. This is how I see it, and often find it also rooted in a sense of humor that is necessary in order to maintain one's sanity.

Yes, as a matter of fact, it does. I find it disrespectful as hell and can't understand why anybody wouldn't see it that way.
