How much infringements do you have to have on things before you call it a tyranny? You have less freedom than in Europe except what guns concerns (in a few states and cities you actually have harsher gunlaws than in most of Europe!) and you don't use those guns to what they were once intended for.
I'm actually pretty sure that Franklin and Jefferson would have called someone like Obama a tyrant.
Obama is our first BLACK president. Most of us are allowing him some latitude. His doctrine in history will be laid to question, but not so much as our allowing him a full rope with which to hang himself. Our tolerance MIGHT be ignored as history "remakes itself." However, I think all of us will bear a burden due to his way of executing the duties of his office.
Obviously, you missed my earlier point.
Union begins at your next door neighbor's house. Our Union of Great States is stronger because of the "unity" we all share with our neighbors.
The Plurality of our populace defines the best of all that there are on this globe - freedom seekers, all of us. Every single one of us came from a place that was LESS FREE!! Seeking is the first battle!! It is not yet accomplished, but it is the continued attempt to attain all those freedoms we assume "to be self evident" that continues to set us apart from all you who are willing to give in to various forms of tyranny.
IF you are talking about how difficult it is to fly or travel in this nation, you must realize, it is NOT any of US that we are being wary of; it is those of you who would not respect or even dismiss our freedom so frivolently as to make yourselves a threat to what we believe.
Trust me, I do know that my kind (gun owners, like small government, low taxes, prefer personal freedoms) only hold a small advantage in numbers. I am looking forward to the day when we have identified all those NON-AMERICANS within our borders and sent them all to Gitmo.
Other than that, fuck all your pretentious bullshit!
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!
