re: Facts Most Americans Are Too Fearful to Face

That we are not "the Land of the Free". Tell me someone who will tell you that, and I will show you someone who has rarely, if ever, left the country.

Having lived in Mexico City for nearly four years now, I can unilaterally tell you America is one of the most free countries on the planet.

I hear about police brutality because someone resisted and the cop wrestled them down and handcuffed them -- meanwhile, here in Mexico, some 30+ people can be outright murdered by police and there's nothing on the global scale.

Hell, 47 people were murdered in Guerrero state (by the government) and it barely made international news.

One black kid gets waxed because he chose to try and fight a cop? International scandal.

Maybe some countries in Europe have it a bit better, but aside from that? Almost no where.
