Return our Freedom!

I have been under the impression that America is supposedly a free country, and it has been such since our fore fathers created the declaration of independance. So since when do these religious zellots and health nuts continue to get their way? How come they are allowed to reduce our freedom that much more?

I am talking about the bans on smoking.

I am talking about the bans on gay marriage.

I am talking about the attack on overweight people.

I am talking about the ridiculous amount of airport security.

I am talking about bans on ANIME! Anime of all things...all because some nut in a suit who sits in a building and prays daily thinks it is evil.

Well I, for one, am tired of watching everything change in the name of religion and what someone thinks is and is not healthy.

So how about we show congress how sick we're becomming that our liberty and our choice is becoming so limited over the bible or the atkins diet! I want my freedom back, and I am sure you are with me that you want it back too! Whatever happened to seperation of church and state? It just keeps getting to the point of insanity that someone else I don't even know is trying to make my life miserable.

If homosexuals want to marry, it should be THEIR choice and not some stuffy suit, cigar smoking jerk. They are humans too you know, stop treating them like diseased animals!

If someone is overweight, stop shoving diets in their face. If everyone was skinny, differences would go down that much more. If they want to be overweight, let them! Stop trying to dig your noses into it and leave the poor people alone!

Ban anime? For what? It's entertainment and it's harmless. I've never had the urge to have sex with someone underaged or kill anyone with a kamakaze blast after watching it. Stop looking into things too deeply! There are better things to worry about. If you don't want your children watching it then don't let them! Don't try to punish an entire country because of your paranoid beliefs!

The smoking bans are getting overdone people. In case you smokers haven't noticed, they are practically trying to make it illegal as a whole. It started with banning it from small things, until they finally decided to ban it from all public buildings. This includes bars, which go hand in hand!! There are even some cities that have made it illegal to smoke a cigarette anywhere other than your house or your car. It's gone too far and I refuse to have my liberty reduced further just to have a smoke.

Then there is airport security, which is just a way to make Americans paranoid and scared. You are treated like a criminal everytime you go through the metal detector and it goes off. If you even try to argue, they get all pissy with you and practically throw you out, without a refund. And since when are they allowed to STEAL your items? If you have something you aren't allowed to bring onboard, they TAKE it from you and you never see it again. It's theft, I don't care the reasons, and I am sick of it.

Also everyone is a terrorist now, it's the most overused word of the century.

It's not America the free anymore, it's America the paranoid. It's America the closed minded. It's America the overly health conscious! Why can't we just let little things go and be equal, enjoy our lives!

Sign this petition if you agree with all I've said. Let's show President Bush we are tired of sitting in silence while bits and pieces of our freedom are taken away! No more wars, no more of our tax dollars going towards a cause that isn't even important! Stop raising the gas prices to make your pockets heavier, stop sending troops over seas to die for a lost cause.

Let us be free once more, let the equality show through!!
