I present to you a very good reminder from
La Shawn Barber's Corner as to why the United States in unique among the world's nations. This article is also a sad commentary how apathy and ignorance is the cancer that will destroy us from with in.
The first ten amendments to the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, are unmatched in their respect for the dignity and autonomy of the individual. These amendments act as limits on the government. The government shall not...shall make no law. The people's rights shall not be infringed...shall not be violated.
What happens to a people who don't know their rights and freedoms? It's shameful that some have no understanding or interest in knowing why they're not thrown in jail for protesting against the government. They may ignorantly believe this is how the world works.
Know your freedoms or no freedoms.
