    What you’re saying is true in theory, but the American Republican party has absolutely nothing in common with it.

    Just look at the patriot act, torture, detention, TSA, and all the other shit pushed through by the GOP that has decimated freedoms and privacy.

    The ONLY individual freedom the GOP protects unconditionally is for everyone and their uncle to own guns. Nevermind if your uncle is a lunatic, they’ll protect his freedom to be armed to the teeth.

      The republican party isn’t conservative. They are neo-conservative. Different problem.
