<Read the question again: Can you name a country that has MORE freedoms than the US? Australia and Canada have much more restrictive laws on firearms ownership than the US does.>........not entirely true.......those countries have much more restrictive laws on concealed weapons but they don't have a problem with open/hunting weapons at all.......can't imagine going to the high school ball packing a 357 magnum......doesn't happen in those other countries........illegal.......you seem to be fixated on firearms as to the degree of a countries freedom???? I don't know about New Zealand, but then again I've never heard of long lines of Americans waiting to emigrate there.........I've never heard/seem long lines of Kiwis wanting too emigrate to Yankee land......I wonder why????????......so what the hell!!!!!!!........dumb statement by YOU. In some parts of the US black persons are still not free....appearance only....... I find that incredible. Where, and which freedoms in the Bill of Rights are forbidden to them?.........wake up & smell the coffee......just because its in the bill of rights doesn't mean that its happening!!!!!!1 BTW I omitted the UK because of their treatment of the Irish I lived in Oxford for quite a few years, and I did my postgrad work at the University there. I'll admit, some of the English are quite racist, particularly against the Scots and Irish. Have you been to the UK, or is your opinion a result of something you've always been told? ......I've been to the UK, Ireland, Republic of Ireland & Scotland.......no big deal.......so your point is?????
