Why do the Freepers hate America?
Over on Freep they're treating Bush's spying on Americans as the noble act of a strong leader.

Like hell.

The last time I checked, the Fourth Amendment only allowed searches with a note signed by a judge affirming probable cause.

This adds the Fourth Amendment to the First Amendment, half the Fifth Amendment (the endangered species act is still a takings, however!), the Sixth Amendment, the Seventh Amendment, the Eighth Amendment, the Twelfth Amendment, the Fourteenth Amendment, and the Fifteenth Amendment that the Freepers are on record as opposing.

What freedoms do they think we're fighting for???

1. Because they hate many Americans
and would rather be spied on by Bush and chance the end of democracy than admit that liberals/gays/atheistjewmuslims got it right on something.

1984, dreaming about how great it would be to live in Oceania and have their every thought accounted for.

3. Ignorance + free floating hatred = Freeper material
They have no clue what protections are there and why they were instituted 200+ years ago. They just know they've been given permission to hate and that those protections get in the way of their vicarious acting out of that hatred.

5. they don't, they're willing to destroy the village in order to save it
which is a sign of their character, resolve, leadership, firmness, confidence and strength. And while they heaped ridicule on the notion that "it takes a village", they are definitely villagers themselves, in the sense of provincial, and are therefore upright upstanding strongmen, willing to Do What It Takes (DWIT, rhymes with twit) to Keep America Safe From Terrorists and Liberals and Other FairyMen Who Aren't Strong Like Us. They can Handle it. We by contrast are a bunch of effeminate perverts who do strange things like read and think and have sex in multiple positions for a long time and aren't afraid of appearing weak and other strange sh!t like that. Only when you're willing to kill what you love can you keep it just like you want it to be. Love is strength.

(Any readers among who the preceding raises concern for my sanity or the safety of those around me, or just that I have a scary head, please let me reinforce if it wasn't obvious that I was speaking in a role, and umm, don't quite umm, subscribe to the above, shall we say. I think it wasn't far off the mark as characterizations go though, maybe the contrast was a little high, I'll work on my chiaroscuro (that's a fairy elitist art thingy, Freepers)).

America's enemies have always been ignorance, incompetence and indifference.

7. They don't hate America, they just love Fascism
They're not shy about telling you that you and people like you shouldn't be allowed to vote.

8. They hate America because
The concept of two consenting adult males having sexual relations somewhere and enjoying it is just too much for their warped little minds so they're willing to sacrifice everything guaranteed by the Constitution to stop them.

Whew.

9. It's because they share one brain among them.
And the brain they share is diseased.

10. See this thread about that issue.

This is how to own a FReeper that thinks that kind of thing is alright.
