In America, a crime has to be commited before the police can do anything. In the UK, the police can act if they suspect something. Huge difference.

In other news from the UK, if you’re a child killer, you’ll serve 7 years in prison and then be released with a brand new identity and round the clock police protection in case anyone finds out your real identity.

Also in the UK, your defense in court CAN be harmed by not talking to the police.

No, it isn't. There will always be those who want to suppress free speech but the Constitution will withstand their assaults.

Freedom of speech is a beautiful thing in this country. Protects even the most vile of opinions.

Things to be thankful for in the good ole US of A...



Free speech that is deemed "hate speech" is not legally protected in Western nations like the UK, France and Canada. Liberals never met a "tolerance" law they didn't like... which is a shorthand way of saying, any kind of speech that I disagree with or deem offensive.

So basically what the proggies want. They want to be able to taunt, assault, insult, denigrate, malign and slander you all they want, but as soon as you do something that “offends” them, they want you punished with the force of law.



frick proggies and any political party that supports them

In America, they used to arrest people for burning a piece of red, white and blue cloth that the people owned. Crazy, right?

The Supreme Court shut that down in Texas v. Johnson in 1989.

Yes it’s crazy and like you said, SCOTUS shut it down bc freedom.
