	I love the way the U.S. apparently has freedoms that no other country in the world could possibly have! Yay USA! Is she best friends with Terry Goodkind, or something? He was under the delusion that Canada had no 'right of free speech' or something equally stupid. (Reply to this)(Thread)

Yeah, and even if we have the same rights, we can never achieve the same rightness, especially when the rights are not in the same order as they are in the constitution.

Nevermind that most of the constitutional rights are of course constricted elsewhere in the American law. Like it is in every damn other country.

Right of free speech? Sure, but no hate speech.
Right of going everywhere you want? Sure, but not on private propety, naked or when you have broken the law.

	And, of course, if a country has a damn good constitution, it's only because they modelled it after the US one! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Well, it has to be modelled after the US one. We did have the first constitution, after all. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	So, just because someone writes a book and uses letters, it is modelled after the first book? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	As opposed to writing a book and using numbers? A picture book? Unless this person totally got the idea of making any sort of book, with or without ever having seen another book in his/her life. (Reply to this)(Parent)
