Good neighbors make good fences.

I'd like to point out that over the last ten years, America and Americans have been giving up their rights wholesale.
Since 9/11/01 we have "traded freedom for a little security".

Western Europeans arguably have more freedoms now than do citizens of the United States.

Let me repeat what I said in an earlier posts, if a police officer asks for ID and the citizen either cannot or will not produce that ID, the police can detain and jail that citizen.
