While reading a lot of what people post and answer on here, I feel dismayed that so many people are not only "okay" with the status quo, but they harass, label and judge those who question it.\n\nI despise it when people answer something "b/c it's against the law," well that's just fantastic, but it's not a valid answer.  When growing up, did anybody like it when their parents said "b/c i said so." Nope!\n\nPeople, I have found, are reluctant to invite controversy, to debate and to use their minds openly and freely.  It's absolutely fine to agree w/ the establishment, but it's also ok to disagree; the people who make the laws are working for us, don't forget that.  These laws are meant for our benefit, to protect us and maintain a stable society - not to keep us opressed and under their submission (yeah, I know it's hard to believe that sometimes).\n\nSo to whom ever reads this and the person who posted this question, I hope that Americans start realizing that 1) the media have their own money/power-making agendas, and delivering truth is a biproduct 2) there are two sides to every story 3) criticizing the status quo is not the equivalent of becoming a rebel anarchist...it's simply using the brain that you were born with.
