Yeah, I posted the same quote last year, but I ain’t found nothing since that better exemplifies the disparity between the horseshit “freedom” Americans like to brag about, and the, shall we say, facts on the ground.

You’re in the United States. You’ve never read the thing, but the Constitution guarantees you certain rights. And you unequivocally have those rights, right up until the moment you exercise one. Ultimately, you have one tangible freedom in the United States: you’re free to do exactly what you’re told, all the time. That’s the one freedom you have. And the alternative? Well, we’ve got cages. We’ve got clubs. We’ve got the 82nd Airborne Division. What have you got?

– Ward Churchill
