This is a damning indictment of the status quo

Here is the thing...if anyone doesn't like it then they can leave and go somewhere else...it is easy to get a citizenship in South American countries. Still better than any crap hole I have ever been to.

I think we can be better as a nation. I will stay thanks. There were many things in this video that were spot on and instead of being butt hurt over it, we can figure out how to be better. Or... folks can just bury their heads in the sands and chant how great we are as a nation.

I have traveled all over this world and to too many countries and every continent (to many to list here) and no where, and I mean no where do they have the freedoms we have. That is why I served and continue to serve in the role I am in now. I try to make things better around me and in my community and I wish more people did that instead of like you said burying their heads in the sand. We will not always agree on everything but the one common thread is that we are all Americans and we should be trying to partner up, roll up our sleeves, turn our hats around and get to work making it better instead of infighting.

Lt Col Scott Shuttleworth indeed we can do better. In 2020 the US was ranked 18th in the world for freedom/liberty. Many of the countries that beat us out I have been to or have friends/family who live there. NZ, Switzerland, Sweden, Australia, Ireland, estonia, etc. We will continue to do worse or stay stagnant while other countries do better if we keep thumping our chest about how great we are and not trying to get better.
