Race baiting at it's most moronic :roll:
Canuck said:it suppose to be free ,and it can be said that it is the most free nations on earth.
but I submit that for these reasons and these reasons alone it is not free
1) there is an evil that has persisted in controling America(most other countries to)that evil has a plan andmake no mistake about it has been in america a long time
2)some of the population is not free to do things that others in the populace can IE: black in america can never be allowed to be president (due to above reasoning 1)
3) your govt. system is not Based on referendums.
4) electronic voting stations can, AND I suspect has been jerry rigged.
5) Americans are too busy to get involved and apathey is the norm
As you can see all of America's freedom problems stems from number 1 the root of the problem.
losing a few freedoms now and then in the name of betterment providing they are put a referendum does not reduce freedom .
if I for git any please feel free to ad lib

Columbusite said:No, it's not really free:
-You can't choose what to put in your body even if it doesn't harm others.
-You can't get married to someone if they have the same thing you do in your pants.
-Hell, you can't even buy liquor on Sundays in many places. Yeah that's free.
-Don't even think about running for office if you're not Christian, especially if you're a black gay atheist.
-"Free Speech Zones" (Both democrats and republicans are guilty of this)
Not to mention the past of this "free nation":
-Laws against what you can do in your bedroom.
-Interracial marriage ban.
-Unequal civil rights for blacks.
-Segregation
-Women's right to vote
-Being Japanese post WWII (they weren't white like Germans)
-Treatment of Communists in the 50's (even though it was legal to be a member)
-Atheists and other non-believers that have been treated poorly for their views
-Slavery
-Child Labor laws (or lack thereof)
-Outlawing the teaching of Evolution
