Here's a pic to illustrate:

Apologies, I thought you were from the UK, didn't look at the top to see where you are from. And Brits, I do like your country, I've been there long ago (1972) and totally fell for the place, but I probably would not recognise it now.
I still wonder why you feel freedom as granted in our Constitution is out of date though? Times may change but basic human rights do not.
That's why we tossed Mad King George and his rented German thugs out in the first place.
We all have made our choices, and we all have the right to keep them as we see fit. Europeans are used to living in societies where power is exercized from the top down, because of centuries of conditioning being ruled by kings.
We rejected that right from the start and are used to power deriving from the people, and having founding fathers that understood that protecting the people from their government is the single most important aspect of civil life.
But enough of this banter, time for something completely different.
