"citizen" is definately the key word. Remember when there used to be such a thing as being a good citizen.

Remember when there used to be such a thing as being a good citizen. You're showing your age. I'm surprised we don't refer to each other as comrade. "Citizen" is so exclusive (sarcasm). There seriously has to be a reawakening in this country regarding our duties and responsibilities as CITIZEN. The Romans took citizenship very seriously and it carried a lot of weight. That nation collapsed because it became diluted with outsiders who didn't assimilate and never saw themselves as being Roman. I fear that we are heading down that same road, for the same reasons. Sane citizens have to make themselves heard.
