And not a one of you would be able to say what you are right now without the ancesters of these men and women doing what they thought was correct back in the 1700s.
This is simply not true. There is no reason to imagine that our rights would be any different than what the people of Canada enjoy if the people of the US hadn't fought the revolution back in the 1700s, and they enjoy pretty much the same freedoms as we do. Although if we were Canadians, I tend to doubt that we would be recieving threats of physical violence visited upon us for speaking our minds as you have done with Lepus Rex (insensitive as his posts are). I know you're under a lot of emotional stress right now, Steve, but that post was not worthy of you.
I know that you participated in the movement to stop the Vietnam War. You must have had a reason for doing that.
This fight in Iraq could be the actual beginning of Iraqi independance for all you Einstein's know.
I hope you're right.
