We are citizens by choice and part of being a citizen is professing your allegiance to the flag, as well as abide by our laws. That's not enforcement...that's called choice. Anyone who doesn't want to profess their allegiance to the flag or refuses to abide by our laws is welcome to leave. Freedom is a beautiful thing.

Really? The "love it or leave it" argument? You're getting desperate, man.

Applying the same logic to poverty,

"Anyone who doesn't want to be poor is welcome to get a better job. Freedom is a beautiful thing."

Yeah! If you're from Asia and you have dark skin....get light skin and get a job, dammit! Ladies not high enough pay? Get a sex change for God's sake!

In the 1800's why didn't they just speak differently and "decide" not to be slaves...what's the matter with everyone? They all chose it, didn't they?

Love it or leave it...your race, your life situation, and all you know even though the world may know more.

It's really just a choice! I decided this evening, I'm full blooded Jewish (for the blessings) and Native American (just because I wanna have a cool animal name)
