  Whereas I agree, that freedom is important ... how great a percentage
of the population
knows what freedom is?  How great a percentage of the population respect
the lives
of others, or the rights of others?  Try reality, faced with the option
of going to bed with
the thief or face hell through defending the rights of others ... 99.99%
will chose the
former. 
 
  So, stop crying about it ... either live with it, or decide to change
it.  And the only way
to change it ... is by defeating the enemy.
