I can say and write whatever (but unless 50.1% of people think the same as you, it won’t change much). I can read whatever books I want or get whatever news I want (unless it is censored or illegal, the news is biased and opinionated and doesn't show everything a lot of the time, then you have to look on-line for first hand stories from multiple sources with nothing to gain from lying.) I am free to pay a bunch of taxes. And we are free to own certain guns and women are free to control when they give birth in some states. We won't be killed for believing a different religion from someone else, or for not believing any religion at all. But, I'm not sure how this is any different from Guatemala.
So they are the same freedoms we have this side of the border and there goes samcol's reasoning...
