-—Please explain your comment I am not in denial of anything... -—

My comment, “There is a reason the article is called ‘Denial in Britain’” is based on the fact that the article is about denial in Britain.

As to why America is different than Britain let me count the ways.

We have a written Constitution that cannot be modified by an Act of Parliament.
We have a constitutional Bill of Rights.
We have redress for grievances against the executive and legislative branches of government in the courts.
We have States that make laws which the Federal government cannot abrogate.
We have Montana!
We have more guns in private hands and more freedom than the rest of the world put together.

As an example of the last, I could go down to the gun store right now and buy as many Romanian AK-47’s with under-folding stocks as they have, with no background check, no question, and no waiting.

Why? Because I’m a free citizen with rights (and I have a CCW). Can you even conceive of such a thing in Britain?

Britain like the US, Australia and Canada give their citizens basic freedoms and rights but in different ways but all follow a democratic political systemsa often referred to as liberal democracy. Liberal Democracy
