It baffles me that Americans call their country "the land of the free", but apparently they're not even allowed to plant vegetables in their yard. They're allowed to shoot someone on their own land apparently (only in certain situations I'm sure, but still), but they're not allowed to plant harmless and useful vegetables, because someone thinks it's "unsightly".



The “home of the brave” part is also funny since US voters are down to forego civil liberties at the slightest hint of risk, and most everyone is engaging in cover your ass behavior if they have any sort of assets or income potential.
