Give an example of a freedom you had 10 years ago that you do not have now.

Like I'm stupid enough to post any here. But the Sudafed example
someone gives later is a good one.

The threats to our freedoms do NOT come from outside our borders.

At all? Really?


External forces may threaten many things, but we ourselves are the greatest
threat to our own freedom.

I think Ben Franklin's (attributed) words said it best "Those who would
give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve
neither Liberty nor Safety."

Some other thoughts on the matter,

John Adams
Be not intimidated... nor suffer yourselves to be wheedled out of
your
liberties by any pretense of politeness, delicacy, or decency.
These, as
they are often used, are but three different names for hypocrisy,
chicanery and cowardice.

Yes, and these men had the guts to put their names behind their words.
Unlike some who post here.
