I would imagine this has the effect of disincentivizing those in these countries who might be thinking of immigrating to the US.

Germans have been there with Hitler, so they RECOGNIZE the SAME TAKEOVER of AMERICA that they experienced. WE who think ourselves protected from any takeover of our country are aiding and abetting the conquest of our once great country by the Communism of the NEW WORLD ORDER! Some love the takeover and others are too much of a coward to fight so go along to get along, regardless of the cost.

I look to Switzerland now as the land of the free.

AMERICA is NOW ONLY FOR:
the congress to rape financially
the business crony kickback crooks
big companies who buy and own congress
foreign politicians to buy favors
AMERICA IS A BULLSHIT CONCEPT THAT HAS DIED.......
faded away to oblivion due to greed and corruption
not even a shadow of what the founding fathers had in mind
a socialist joke headed for communism and becoming a big Greece
a libtard experiment based on fantasy and pipe dreams
TIME FOR A MAJOR RESET.......

Had a fight last week with a granddaughter over Jenner. She said I was being “JUDGEMENTAL.” I told her I WAS being JUDGEMENTAL and that “judgemental” was knowing the difference between right and wrong. She backed up and reconsidered.The apologized.

They’re right.

See SCOTUS.

It doesn’t. But most people still are under the illusion that it is the land of the free.

I wish I could muster a lot of facts to refute their argument. Unfortunately, most of the facts from the last 25 years or so actually support their argument.

I think it was Huey Long who, when asked if America could ever turn to fascism, said yes it could, but it would be called anti-fascism

No one is excusing Obama. It’s just that he couldn’t have done it without the willing help of the GOP. Besides it’s dangerous to put all the blame on one man when it’s not going to get better under the next GOP administration.

Germans appear to be smarter than Americans. That, or the smart Americans are keeping quiet and sitting on their ammo.

Many European countries are happy to throw common citizens into prison for making "hateful" remarks. We are not quite to that level yet, but not for lack of certain people i.e. libs for trying. Just on that score we are still far ahead of the Euros.

If you do not have freedom of speech i.e the right to tell the truth, what do you have?

How much coverage did the Ferguson business receive in Germany? Maybe the sharp recent drop in the Germans’ perception of American freedom came about because they thought that Michael Brown was wantonly deprived of his freedom, and his life, by a racist cop, and that this is typical of the US.
