If you aren't at least 70 years old, you don't even have a clue as to what it is to experience "Freedom".

Were you required to walk to school for grades 1-6?
Did you get your first BB gun for your 4th Christmas?
Did you get your first gun at your 7th birthday party?
Was it purchased at the corner drugstore?
Did you get your driver's license when you were 12?
Were you (and everyone else) required to have auto insurance for your car?
Did you bring your rifle or shotgun to school during hunting season?
Did you have to wait until you had your first taxable job before applying for an SS card?
Were you outraged that, once a year, you could be required to be filing & paying a government tax of as much as 3%?
Were your parents and grand-parents frothing at the mouth over rumors that a communist was about to require (supposedly temporarily) taxes to be stolen from a pay-check before you even got it.
If you and a friend decided you like each others car better than your own, were you able to simply hand each other the registration papers and drive off? (This was particularly fun in high school with cars switching hands routinely)

Did you bring your rifle or shotgun to school during hunting season?

Kids would bring their rifles and shotguns to SCHOOL and store them in their lockers...and that was in NEW YORK. My generation used to hunt; now they play soccer.
