I hope someday you'll join us...
I'm right in the middle of apathy and "pathy" on this whole discussion as of
late, but here's my wheat penny's worth of talk. [Channeling Mary Katherine
Gallagher] My feelings can best be summed up by reciting the immortal lines
of British mop-topper John Lennon in his 70s classic "Imagine"... [/end
Channelling]
I'm not a big believer in country either, and am just not real territorial I
guess. So when Holly or someone writes she's not a patriot, it makes a
little sense to me in some sense. Written hastily I can see how it could
inflame.
Overall, here's what I like:
* volunteer military
* *unlimited* free speech
* nondiscrimination
* no personal weapons except for hunting
* well run, trust-able small government
* ability to travel freely
* ability to act upon/free will
* fair trial
* fair police, personal safety
* ample infrastructure
* reasonable taxation
So you add it all up, and I'm happy as heck to be born in America, save an
exception or two. It'll work for me until there are no nations anymore.
If you're willing to change the world - let love be your energy,
ACLU member Bruce
