I don't want anyone to leave, unless they want to. I wouldn't tell anyone "Your opinion doesn't belong in the US"- because freedom means all opinions. And the first step toward dictatorship (or one of the first steps) is telling people that some opinions don't belong in a "free" country. That doesn't mean YOU or I have to like the opinions- it only means you don't go around telling people to leave the country if you disagree with them. But some people will never understand that. And I suppose, as lovers of freedom, we have to realize that is simply another opinion we have to tolerate, in order to be free ourselves. Of course this thread is moderated so I WOULD tell people they don't belong here. Because with a moderated thread we can re-shape the world the way we like it. And on this thread, I would prefer it if we do not call people names, or use vulgarity in regard to people, or tell people to leave the country because we don't agree with them. I find that disturbing and evil, and I prefer not to be around that sort of thing. I am sure you will agree.
