You might change your mind if you belonged to one of those minorities.
You might find this worth a read.

Yeah I've heard about Jane - I still say today we are more controlled than we were back then, there are so many more rules now compared to then, in the old days I could drive down any of my local fire trails, these days they are all gated off, I could walk the streets with a 22 with a few rabbits and ducks hanging off my belt, walk straight past the pub and show the fella's some of what I got, now the Tac Response group would show up, we are constantly brainwashed at every turn in life these days, fear is the No.1 propaganda tool used, just about everything we do is dangerous and could kill us at every turn, you now need a license to fish, you can't have a fire on the side of the road to cook lunch, you can't even legally stop on the side of the road unless broken down, you can't camp where ever you like (certainly not on the side of the road) unless in designated spot.
The Government feels it has the right to spy on you're every thought these days, apparently we're all going to die from terrorists at every turn, just like the reds under the bed crap - the list goes on and on but essentially it boils down to us not being able to think for ourselves anymore and the Government knowing best and treating us like ****** and little slaves.
