It's normal for scoundrels to excuse themselves by comparing themselves to other scoundrels somewhere else, isn't it, Old Guy?

Keep this in mind: the only torture that you and those near you need ever fear is that practiced by your own people in your own land. What abuses the Chinese or the Somalians or someone else are practicing on tbeir people in some far distant places is not a direct threat to you. What your own government is doing could well be.

The Chinese won't arrest your neighbour and torture him. Your own government might.

Freedom is secured by eternal vigilance AT HOME, buddy....on the homefront. A lot of Germans forgot all about that in 1933-45, because they were so fixated on the evils that supposedly existed in other places...places they were busy attacking and invading. They paid a terrible price for not securing freedom at home, where it counts.

That's exactly what's going on now in the USA. Your liberty and freedom is being destroyed, piece by piece, in the name of "national security".

Everyone else in the world can see it plainly. Why the hell can't so many of you?
