If you think the US govt is even remotely oppressive, then I say with all due respect that you are a spoiled brat who doesn't even know what oppression is. Go spend some time in N.

Do you want the oppression in the US to get to the level of those countries before you try and retain your rights? Rights should be protected all of the time.
