Todd, The problem is we really have very little freedom so we look to many other parts of the world where they have much less freedom to compaire ourselves to, and feel thankful for what we have. My idea of freedom is a country who leaves you alone to persue happyness. Our countery has become a micomanaging boss over the last 40 years. I am not trying to put down the US I would just like to have more freedom if we are going to say we are a "free country".
I have a question for you, do you think you have more freedom today than 20 years ago? how about 50 or 100 or 200 (this only applies if you are a white male)
My point is there is a rule for anything you want to do even in your own home witch you never really even own (just stop paying your goveronment rent ie. taxes and see how long befor they kick you out)
Free speach is not that rare except in the "crazy" countrys.
Next time you see a cop at the dougnut shop tell him to get off tis lazy butt and get back to work and see if freedom of speach helps you. (no offence to any police I am just trying to make a humorus point)
