1. Not dead, just injured. Keep it together, people.

[Independent_Liberal]

2. It's injured...

We can restore it. It takes time, but it will happen. I am confident.

[Sydnie]

3. politically induced coma

Just like with a patient that needs uninterrupted time to heal. Once we wake, we will be on the mend. (I hope)

4. I would like to have vote for "injured" but I had to vote for "dead".

There are many rights that I remember utilizing in the 60s which have been twisted or restricted to the point that they are useless now and all in the name of what is best for the country or a corporation. We have been asked to give up more and more over the last 30 years ... slowly, quietly ... because we have to protect this small group or that minority or this health issue or that socio-economic group or one or another group is going to come get us, take us over, kill us, or take the future away from our children. We now just want to be Left alone .. don't kick in my door, let me have a little insurance, give me enough pay to feed my family, let me have a little food when I am old, and don't take everything I have for the good of the society.

This is what the land of the free has become ... running other peoples lives because we see our own government taking away the one we have... slowly, quietly.
