Nation of law, hmmm??? Do YOU really see that practiced today. Is you favor Canadian Anchor Baby following the LAW or for that matter the other part of the Cuban Sandwich ???
Every single of your picture posted is an abomination, whether it’s a free speech or 1st. amendment right and seems to contradict your own statement you claim you practice in all areas of YOUR life, tisk, tisk !!
You maybe better understand MY view when I tell you that as a teenager I lived under the rulings of one of the worst butcher to humanity for five years = 1940-1945, something you can’t understand, while you resting safely in your daddy’s sperm castle !!!
If you posted like that in Germany you would be in Jail, that’s how offensive it is, Ooooh yes, I know, “We are a nation of Laws”, my foot !!!
Oh yes. Germany. We should be more like them. /s
Sweden too:

FWIW my father like you was also born in Scandinavia, in Norway to be precise. He came here with his widowed mother when he was about 6 years old in 1928 after she had come to the United States a few years earlier, met and fell in love with and re-married another Norwegian expat, both looking to make a better life for themselves.
When the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor my father who had just turned 20 years old and having grown up in Northern NJ for most of his life and considering himself a patriotic American in all ways, but had not yet become a naturalized US citizen, when he went to enlist the following day, was prevented because of his naturalization status from volunteering for military service.
He was however a year later drafted and gladly served even though as having a job working on the Long Island Railroad as a carpenter by then, a job considered to be “essential war work”, he was eligible for a draft deferment and asked by his boss to take one, but refused it.
He served in the South Pacific in the 37th Infantry Division, was awarded numerous metals including for valor and served in battles in New Georgia, Bougainville, Manila, and in the Battle of Baguio where he was seriously wounded. He became a fully naturalized US citizen several years after the war ended and after marrying my mother, just after my older brother was born. Although the judge who presided considered it a formality believing that my father had “earned” his citizenship, especially after reviewing his military record. His mother and step father naturalized at around the same time.
Meanwhile back in Norway during the war, his grandfather who was the editor and publisher of the newspaper in Kristiansand was writing editorials critical of the Nazi occupation and of Hitler, of Nazism in general and very pro-American. The Gestapo was about to arrest him when he was tipped off by his own daughter, my great aunt who was told about it by a German officer, and he was forced to flee to the mountains with the Norwegian resistance underground.
My great aunt Margaret BTW, seemed to be on the surface a Nazi sympathizer and a bit of a “loose woman” - a “party gal”. Young and very attractive, she was often seen in the company of German officers and some Gestapo officers, making, how should I say it: “making very nice with them”, being wined and dined and accepting gifts from them including additional food and gas rations that she brought home to her parent’s home, much to the disapproval of her father, but times were very hard.
After the war she was arrested and briefly jailed under suspicion of being a “Quisling”, something for which she could have been executed.
It turned out she was nothing of the sort. She was actually an agent for the Norwegian resistance and was passing information on to them that she was learning from her “dates” and eventually to the British and American intelligence corps.
On my mother’s side of the family, she had a 2nd cousin in Germany, a Catholic priest who was sent to the Dachau concentration camp and was never heard from again.

You argue like 5-year-old. And you still haven’t answered my question. But I don’t expect you to as I don’t think you understand it.
Enjoy the freedoms including the 1st Amendment that you obviously do not understand or appreciate, the freedoms that you enjoy here as a naturalized citizen of the United States of America, the freedoms that people like my father fought for and nearly died for and that so many of his comrades in arms did die for.
The ideals of freedom of speech and of the press that nearly got my great grandfather back in Norway arrested and or executed, the very great risks and no doubt humiliations and suspicions that my great aunt put herself under to help free Norway by helping the allied forces, and the sacrifice my mother’s 2nd cousin made in the name of not forsaking his religious beliefs and sacred vows.
What did you do during the war?
