@tokri3 What do you mean learn the system? How about treating everyone with respect. America can't call it self a free democratic society if it don't practice and preach it. If in your opinion America = organized freedom don't you think that's wrong, it should just be freedom like the founding fathers it intended to be. I think you need to show some intelligence.
