THIS is exactly how freedom dies in America, because people can 'live with' others rights being infringed because that particular right doesn't affect them much, but they are more concerned about OTHER issues, so those that don't matter can just 'go away'. Because of this attitude, we have a divided people, divided country, and a useless constitution. Thanks for playing.
