where does it end? I dont want a country like this. I prefer some chaos, some failure, some discourse, some uncomfort in order to live in a place where we are not governed by intrusive petty laws.
Freedom is not easy and not meant to make everyone comfortable.
Bingo!

I know I was raised incorrectly, but a common phrase in my house growing up was "Deal with it". Kids (and society as a whole) are being groomed into a thinking process of "if you don't like it, keep bitching until it's removed" instead of "if you don't like it, deal with it. The world isn't going to be catered to your every whim."
