That lovely photograph shows Isis, the ancient Egyptian goddess who is also represented on a plaque usually somewhere near the Pope, with the letters IHS: Isis, Horace, Set(h). Your country and mine was started and is run by people who worship those ancient Egyptian idols, or only worship gold or maybe naked children. So you expected life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness? I did.

Americans say tyranny is wonderful because the US has always been a police state, but what if the USA used to have freedom and lost it?

Even if the US never had freedom, does that mean liberty is bad?

Did the USA have curfews, NSA wiretapping, checkpoints, forfeiture, the end to the right to silence, free speech bans, torture, kill lists, no fly lists, searches without warrants, private prisons, mandatory minimums, 3 strikes laws, DNA databases, CISPA, SOPA, NDAA, IMBRA, FBAR, FATCA, TSA groping, secret FISA courts, redlight cameras, license plate readers, and Jade Helm in 1980?

Did Americans have gun bans, business licenses, Social Security numbers, sales, income, or property taxes in 1890?

Were drugs, alcohol, smoking, gambling, and prostitution illegal in 1880?
