oh yay once again the government did not fail to amaze me with its stupidity i swear i outta just go buy my own private island and never come back to society.
Isn’t it ironic that that men and women throughout America, throughout history have fought and died to enstill liberties to peoples that have been oppressed for generations. Yet our own elected officals chip away piece by piece at our own, under the veil of what’s good for society.
How long will it be before we’re no longer recognized as a Democratic Republic? Take a look at Sri Lanka’s constitution. They have their equivilant to our bill of rights:
—- CHAPTER III – FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS
10. Freedom of thought, conscience and religion.
11. Freedom from torture.
12. Right to equality.
13. Freedom from arbitrary arrest, detention and punishment, and prohibition of retroactive penal legislation.
14. Freedom of Speech, assembly, association, and movement.

Ahh all warm and fuzzy right? Continue to article 15. And read it in detail.
