What rights do they lack?


by the existence of tyranny. It's present in this thread some article one to take away freedom of speech and call what they're limiting hate speech. That's being a tyrant.

I don't see anyone trying to limit your free speech rights or legislate hate speech.

You could argue that the USA is a "lesser" nation because it allows people the right to spout hate speech

So if people vote to take away the "right" to insult and verbally attack others in hate speech, they're being "tyrants"


Polls show most American oppose the 1st Amendment's provision for hate speech. Are they all "tyrants"

I would post the link again but you've said you don't read links.


You also think a bar owner should have the right to refuse to serve black people - by making him serve all customers, is the law being tyrannical ?

So help me understand a context where "...your cockamamie gender theory is similar to evolution..." doesn't mean that evolution is "cockamamie" or at least similar to it.

More rights means Superior Nation.

The right to free speech does not make rnation a tyranny. I don't care if some people think that it doesn't make sense

Poor English but I think you meant the absence of right to free speech doesn't make a country a tyrrany.

I believe you

Other posters, however, think that having a nonsensical argument is departmental to their position in any debate though.

So no other country has more/better freedoms or rights than the USA ?

A sweeping statement right out of the right of US politics - I wager the number of national constitutions outside the USA you're familiar is a big fat 0.

So if there was but ONE such country you'd admit the USA was a "lesser" nation alongside it and that YOU are wrong ?
You already said you don't read links so:

In the UK there are no legally enshrined rights. None. Yet the people there do not feel they live in a tyranny

Why do you think that is. Is that the blinkered American inside you talking - a man who's never been outside the USA and who knows nothing about the world outside it.

Is this the part when you ask me if the USA is so bad, why don't I live in Venezuela ?

People can feel like they don't live under tyranny and still live under tyranny. Sorry you wasted your time with this post.

Can you answer any of the questions ?

In your mind, are the British living under a "tyranny" ?



In your mind do those 27 countries listed not have more freedom than in the USA ?



What about Mexican civil rights being superior to that of the USA

What about US police violating human rights every days and shooting thousands of people ?



Have you ever been outside the USA ?

Are you just a small town, small minded American with no knowledge of any constitution other than your own ?

Is that why your so blinkered in thinking the USA has more rights that anyone else and therefore the rest-of-the-world is comprised of "lesser" nations?
