We are no longer a Free country. Mandatory health care? Is this freedom? Mandatory govt sponsored school? Mandatory seat belts? Mandatory this and that? What is freedom, what is a free country? Freedom of association? Not here, you must accept someone that just rankles your moral code and work with them in your own shop! You must rent to a room mate that is queer and against all your moral principles, or someone that is of an other race that hates your race!
You cannot go together with a bunch of like friends and oppose a political party within 30 or 60 days of an election! Is this freedom of speech!
You cannot possess a gun in the DC, yet the 2nd amendment states otherwise.
One of the primary reasons for the 2nd amendment is to prevent government form doing exactly what they are trying to do, prevent freedom, free speech, free association, and freedom to elect a true representative.

This country is no longer a free country. Why dosen't much matter, it just isn't a free country.

Freedom was once worth dying for. Whats it worth now? A communist, no take that back, two communists, running for president. The opponent is a pseudo communist himself. He is after all the one that is responsible for limitations of free speech that are unprecedented. McCain Feingold is about as commie as it gets.

Heaven help America and the USA.

I agree with most of what you said there... and then...

Hicks in the hinterlands, the only real Americans.

WTF? You live in So Cal? Oh yeah that is the hicks in the hinterlands.
