well, i'm having a bit of an issue with the generalizations and labels on whichever side people look at this. Roachboy says 'first, the op comes from a particular political position.', but does that automatically make it a left or right position? Then people are saying that certain conservatives don't like hippies, etc.
I didn't realize that trying to point out acts that prohibit or limit constitutional rights and freedoms made someone a liberal or conservative. I also didn't realize that only hippies led/participated in protests. I'm far from being 'liberal' and i'm certainly not 'conservative', in fact, if you were to see me in person you're first reaction would probably be to call me a hippy since my hair goes down to the middle of my back, does that make me a liberal?
why is it that people have to define inalienable rights on a left/right basis? why is it that those who DO split it up, decide to do it based on the 'worthiness' of the person?
It probably won't matter much longer anyway. The way that THIS psychotic gun nut see's it, neither left or right will be free much longer, but everybody will be too damn busy blaming the other side for it to see who's fault it really is.
