The US should be ashamed. We ought to be #1.
Really, you think those countries are more free?
Go buy a gun in one of those countries.
Go say something about Islam in one of those countries.
Homeschool your kids in one of those countries.
Go ahead, but keep a friend with a video camera focused on you so we can all share in the fun.
I'm sure the people who calculate the Human Freedom Index would have put us at #1 if Hillary had won.
Switzerland and NZ aren’t terrible on firearm rights, but good luck buying a gun in Ireland or Hong Kong or any of the other countries ranked higher than the US. This most likely defines freedom as access to tax-funded birth control and abortion. Not worth anything.
If our media didn't always project us, to the world, as being a sexist, racist, homophobic, group of fascists, we would be #1.
