We only get as much freedom as we take from those that would kill us to control us.
How long has it been since you ran a deserted red light at 2am?
Since you drove without a seatbelt?
You can see how much freedom the pot smokers are getting, it only took 100 years, but without all those people that smoked and went to prison for our right to be free we never would have broken the DOC bank.
Those people that sacrificed their lives into the belly of the beast are the true heroes.
This is the broken window theory of freedom, either break some windows or kiss your freedom goodbye.
