Freedoms

 

Americans have more freedoms than any other country in the world...

  • Freedom of speech
  • Freedom of assembly
  • Freedom of the press
  • Freedom of religion
  • Freedom to own a firearm
 Americans don't just have Federal Rights but State Rights as well.
For instance:
  • The federal government say marijuana is illegal, yet some states say it is legal and our federal government does not interfere.
  • Some states say abortion is legal while other states say it is illegal - our federal government says that right belongs to the states.

Expressing our freedoms:
  • Americans can protest against the government and not be thrown into jail
  • Americans can burn the American flag and not be thrown into jail
  • Americans can write and publish anti-American opinions and not be thrown into jail
  • Americans can vote themselves a felon for President
  • Americans can vote themselves out of a Democracy and into Socialism or Communism

Think about that...

Americans are so free that they can vote themselves out of a Democracy and can vote for the government to take away their freedoms...
