What ways do you think we are restricted?
The only one I can come up with is firearms.
We have more sex in our environment, less stringent drinking laws, less weapons, less murder, more lenient drug laws.
Just curious really.
From our view, you guys are much more restricted in your personal lives. You have stricter laws regarding your sexual practises, your use of alcohol and recreational drugs.
Your Police have much greater powers of search and seizure, and with the Patriot acts, it looks like its set to get worse.
We travel through Europe without much care for problems, yet for most Europeans, a trip to the US is becoming quite a chore and a worry that we have all our 'papers in order'.
This isn't an argument, just an observation and I'm interested to hear what appearance we might have for you guys.
