That is sick.  America is the freest most prosperous nation in the world,
and here's some lamer bitching about not being "free"?  Like what?  Free to
kill blacks?  Free to spew on Jews?  Obviously the lamer did something
ignorant, and doesn't have a grip on reality.  Does anyone believe the feds
will just pick people at random and harrass them?  Who the hell has time for
that?

I'd like to brand this guy with a big fat "L" in the middle of his forehead.
