Really, okay lets try an experiment. Drive to Germany and deny the Holocaust in a public place near German Law enforcement officials.
Although I think Holocaust deniers are racist crazy people, even they have the right to freedom of speech in the Good ol' USA. You end up in jail in
Germany and a bunch of other European countries.
Experiment number two. Send a female family member of your into a french government building or school while wearing a Muslim head scarf.
In the Good ol' USA, people are free to express their religion by wearing religious clothing and symbols, even when that religion is particular
unpopular with the majority of the citizenry. Not the case in France, and other European countries.
You can keep your European freedoms. I like my American freedoms better.
