There was a time when Americans believed in freedom.
The US is dying from a million cuts. Part of the reason the USA is a nanny police state now is that whenever there is a problem, the kneejerk reaction in the US is to call for a new law.
Nanny state laws are not the best solution, however. Nanny state laws lead to more laws, higher fines, and tougher sentences. Thirty-five years ago, DWI laws were enacted that led to DWI checkpoints and lower DWI levels. Seatbelt laws led to backseat seatbelt laws, childseat laws, and pet seatbelt laws. Car liability insurance laws led to health insurance laws and gun liability laws. Smoking laws that banned smoking in buildings led to laws against smoking in parks and then bans against smoking in entire cities. Sex offender registration laws led to sex offender restriction laws and violent offender registration laws.
Nanny state laws don't make us safer, either. Nanny state laws lead people to be careless since they don't need to have personal responsibility anymore. People don't need to be careful crossing the street now because drunk-driving has been outlawed and driving while using a mobile phone is illegal. People don't investigate companies or carry out due diligence because businesses must have business licenses now.
The main point of nanny state laws is not safety. The main purposes of more laws are control and revenue generation for the state.
Another reason laws are enacted is because corporations give donations to lawmakers to stifle competition or increase sales.
Many laws are contradictory, too. Some laws say watering lawns is required, while other laws say watering lawns is illegal.
Many nanny state laws that aim to solve a problem can be fixed by using existing laws. If assault is already illegal, why do we need a new law that outlaws hitting umpires?
Do laws even work? Heroin is illegal, but do people still use heroin?
Nanny state laws are not even necessary. If everything was legal would you steal, murder, and use crack cocaine? Aren't there other ways to solve problems besides calling the police? Couldn't people educate or talk to people who bother them? Can't people boycott businesses they hate? Couldn't people be sued for annoying behavior? Couldn't people just move away? Even if assault was legal, wouldn't attackers risk being killed or injured, too? Do people have consciences? Having no laws doesn't mean actions have no consequences.
If there is no victim, there is no crime.
We don't need thousands of laws when we only need 10.
Should swimming pools be banned because they are dangerous? Hammers? Bottles? Rocks? Energy drinks? Pillows?
Where does it end?
If one state can have self-serve gas stations, why can't every state have them? If sodas were legal 20 years ago, why can't they be legal now?
Freedom is not just a one way street. You can only have freedom for yourself if you allow others to have it.
Control freaks might get angry when a neighbor owns three indoor cats, but what did the neighbor take from them? Why should this be illegal? Is outlawing cats something a free country should do? Doesn't banning everything sound like the opposite of liberty?
Instead of getting mad at people who like freedom, why don't people realize that freedom is a two way street?
If you allow others to paint their house purple then you can, too.
If you allow others to own a gun then you can, too.
If you allow others to swear then you can, too.
If you allow others to gamble then you can, too.
Good men don't need laws. Bad men won't obey laws.
Who wants to live in a prison?
Think. Question everything.

70 years of welfare state and third-world immigration leads to a low IQ population that canât survive without the nanny state to wipe its butt when they go to the bathroom.
Good people do not need laws to tell them to act responsibly, while bad people will find a way around the laws.

WTF?
Americans have completely lost their minds.
Americans are just animals at this stage.
If the US could be a free country for 200 years then why does the USA need to suddenly become a police state?
Why did the US fight the British if Americans hate freedom?
Why did Americans fight Nazis and Commies just to become Nazis and Commies?
Americans are so retarded now that they need their beloved government overlords to ban straws.
Americans scream bakeries must be forced to make cakes for fags.
Americans insist affirmative action is good because white people who aren't hired at one company cannot possibly apply for a job at another business.
Americans have become so batshit insane now that they think loving freedom means that you support raping kids.
Americans aren't angry that Americans are not allowed to carry guns around to protect themselves. Americans are outraged that people have guns.
Americans aren't outraged that regulations and trade wars have killed the economy, Americans can't stand that the US has immigrants.
Americans don't care if they must pay taxes that fund tyranny, debt, and wars, but Americans lose their minds that the homeless don't work.
Americans don't care if the Gestapo shoot unarmed Americans in the back, but Americans become batshit insane when Americans record the Gestapo.
Americans scream being forced to stand for the national anthem means freedom.
Americans ban drugs and when drug crime rises, the US says Mexico must pay reparations.
Americans say that either churches must be closed or Americans must be forced to attend church, but no one says Americans should be allowed the freedom to choose.
Americans think that they know what is best for others, but are simply unable to understand that if you want your neighbor to remove his garden, your neighbor might want your driveway banned.
Do you feel like the US is a happy utopia now that styrofoam has been outlawed? Do you think tyranny has stopped? Do you honestly believe backpacks will never be banned?
Do you feel safer now that you live in a prison and have no rights?
Everyday Americans spit on the graves of US soldiers who died fighting for freedom.
Everyday Americans shit on the Bill of Rights.
Americans do not have the mental capacity to recognize hypocrisy, do not know history, and are completely unable to comprehend the meaning of unintended consequences.
Americans say North Koreans are monsters for using torture and having nuclear weapons, but then Americans turn around and insist that the US can take the moral high ground for torturing and having nuclear bombs.
Americans scream Trump is a holy god for supporting wars, debt, tyranny, but Obama was evil for defending wars, debt, and the police state.
Americans do not realize that tyranny spreads out from the US to other countries and down to to states, counties, and cities. Americans cannot see that if smoking is banned in California today, smoking might be outlawed in Kansas tomorrow.
The USA feel like it is committing suicide.
Do Americans understand that force is not the only possible answer to solving problems?
Do Americans who hate liberty feel like traitors?
Americans say that they hate the elites, but then Americans turn around and embrace every insane decree, debt increase, and war the globalists are pushing.
When a country is collapsing into madness, the most rational action for any sane person is to leave.
Disgusting and shameful.
Do Americans realize that tyranny grows and never stops?
Why would the elites restore the Bill of Rights, end the wars, and reduce the debt if the ruling class has crossed every line and Americans don't care?
Will Americans regret remaining silent when they get sent to the concentration camps?
Burn it down. Burn it to the ground.

If man believes a member of the Crown (State) has done wrong, in which court, that's not a Crown (State) court, does man seek redress or compensation for the wrong?
When the fox administers justice, the chickens will always be found guilty.
