ORIGINAL: freedomdwarf1 Not in my lifetime it won't. You clearly don't think we have the freedoms that you do. Well actually, we do - at least 99.9% of them. The same is for European countries, AU/NZ and most of the OECD countries. ETA: As for 'allow': it means it's not illegal to march. Like the freedom to be homeless? Let's start at the weakest and work our way up, shall we? And the US has NO homeless?? From talkpoverty: Tonight, thousands of homeless people in the United States will face the possibility of arrest because they do not have a safe place to sleep. Thousands more could be arraigned for sitting or standing in the wrong place. While they must sleep rest their legs, homeless people live in cities where these and other life sustaining activities are against the law, even though shelters face a critical shortage of beds. It's not illegal to be homeless in the UK - unlike some parts of the US. Seems you have less freedom than we do on that one. quote:
ORIGINAL: tamaka Btw, you have the freedoms that the USA allows you to. You couldn't defend yourself alone before, and you can't now. Wake up and smell the coffee. We are not beholding to the US for our freedoms. And, fwiw, if it wasn't for our original constitution, you wouldn't have yours; at least not in its current form.
