I hold these truths to be self evident.
I agree that the US is a wonderful land, but we have given up many of our freedoms in a fairly thinly-veiled reasoning of security - however, we've still got 20 times more weapons than any of you other fuckers, so sit down and shut up.

Canada, Mexico, liberals, mushrooms, asses and weaponary has little to do with why the US can be claimed as the most free country on the planet.
Tho sure agree the US is a nice place - like most countries (with the odd exception
)
OK.. Fire this one... and, hell not got time for a long dialog, but it's something to think about....
Are you aware that almost every international treaty that has been both signed and ratified by the US govt, - simple, but important stuff like.. basic human rights issues - does not permit US citizens to take these up for their own protection in a courtroom, - despite they are part of Federal law?
Are you aware that the US is the only country in the western world that chases it's citizens for worldwide income taxes while they are not even resident in the US, but permanently live abroad?
Are you aware the US claims to now comply (treaty has been signed and ratified) with basic human rights issues, but has more complaints of violations than any country in the western world and places barriers up to investigations of these complaints? (Unlike Colombia, Peru, Germany, Brazil, Italy ad nausea...)
This concept of freedom and democracy, in reality, is not exactly true - especially for US folks.
